I have no doubt that a zero timed , sensored motor would give better low end control. The 17.5s spoken about will still get up and go quite hard. In the States , they use 21.5 blinky , together with 540 .

I personally like the sound of a 21.5 boosted and timing advance on the can. This should be nice and gentle in the slower, tighter turns, while getting along at an entertaining speed on the straights.

This is what i will go with , when i pick up an fgx in the future.
Being flexible on power systems allows people to use what they already have lying around. The goal is getting people in, as racing two other guys isnt much fun.......
