It's a serious question since I am just getting back into racing and need to buy sets of BL motors for the first time. I was leaning towards the Tekin RS Pro speed control and the 4.5, 13.5 and 17.5 motors.

Can others chime in also?
Just ask JayL on here. He was running a Tekin 4.5, dropped in a LRP 4.5 and could not even drive his car the same way. And not brand loyalty, I could care less what motor I run. I don't like the newer Tekin stuff, but it is really fast in stock no doubt.
