+1 on what all the guys have posted previously. No problems with the GX Series motors whatsoever. They are very popular in the Truggy class here - in fact one of my best mates just took out the NZ National Champs by 3 laps running the GX-5R in his Mugen. It performed flawlessly over the entire three day event, and just sat there idling away as happy as could be after being thrashed hard for 1 hour in the final
