Ok, so it's obvious I'm new to the electric seen. I'm not new to racing though, I've been racing 1/8 scale buggy for about 10 years now and mini late model for about 1year. These short course trucks look like too much fun and I also like watching the real deals tear it up on tv. I just ordered an SC10. I've read back to page 116 so far. Lots of helpful info. My question is. Can some of you post what esc/motor combo you are running, and what you do or don't like about them? I guess that's more than one question. Anyway, I'm in the market and would like to get a general consensus. Thanks in advance.
Tekin RS/Novak Ballistic 17.5
Obsolete setup, no room for 17.5's in Corr/SCT anymore. Bumped up to Mod. It's a shame to, the Sct class is fun to run with 17.5's. But it's unfair to the cheapo's that would rather spend the exact same money on a dozen brushed motors that aren't really any slower.
It keeps up fine with the mod Sc10's unless they get a good exit onto the straight. Even still I only give up a car length or two on the (short) straight.
Rest of the track I get to enjoy an easier to drive truck. Seems the mod trucks just crash more. When they run a clean lap they're flying.
Still I want an 8.5 or 7.5
