Yes, almost always. With this question I felt it more pertaining to the discussion to use kv rating for clarity. An 8.5t motor from company a may have 9000kv while 8.5t motor from company b may have 8500kv with company c's 8.5t having 8000kv, all of which would have a large impact on the results of my question if I only asked about the turns of the motor.

yeah, but i was trying to be tricky about it
It's not dancing hamsters, but its still disappointing (at least I was when I clicked on the link 
). I saw 10b & 2wd & got excited

What got me thinking about it is the new Tekin pro2/4 motors that are coming out. In particular, a 4 pole 6600kv
540 can motor. This motor should pull 24000RPM's on 1c & have torque for days. Geared properly (I'm guessing similar to a 17.5t on 2c) it should be a monster on a small tight track (which is what I run on).

Has anyone else had issues with spur gear wobble due to the top shaft being out of true? I just ran my B4.1 WC for the first time. I've got a ton of wobble so I've got to pull out my spur a lot so it doesn't bind. It's also noisier than my SC10 is.

The Tracks in our area would be considered low bite compared to the rest of the country. What you guys out west call low bite, we would drool over
I know how what you are referring to, but I never liked the feel of a std ubrace period. Always shaved and usually no washers. I'm going to try one though.
As far as the tower goes, I always like the C better. I think it's all driving style though because I also ran 2.5 deg of toe too when most ran 3.0. Guess I liked my car to rotate
tbh, I'm quite rusty since I haven't raced since early March. Over the next month or so, I'll get to put some track time in and test.
To give it a fair comparison with the A tower use a non shaved brace with 1 washer or put 3 on the shaved brace.
If I'm using the C tower and grip is really high I would use no washer. 95% of the time that I run the C tower I have 1 washer though.
With the A tower I run standard brace with 1 washer. Occasionally going to 2 washers if the grip is low.
