After reading your posts I thought you would have had enough of this kind of talk over in the vta thread.

Ok. Here's my opinion on motors. Just my opinion so don't jump on me too hard.

Anything besides a lrp running over 170 degrees is not good. I run all of my motors at 160 or less. I don't like burning up motors and they don't need to be pushed that hard to be competitive.

I don't like the speed passion motors. Some do but I don't care for them. I have also seen dependability issues from the rotors of the d3. Seriously fast motor but I have seen too many chunked rotors.

I have used the Novak ballistic, reedy sonic, and revtech 21.5 and my son and my racing buddy use the Novak ss 21.5. They are all great motors but if I had to pick one I would go with the reedy sonic.

I like the Novak Ballastic 21.5....its won me alot of races...but Ive run the Reedy Sonic 21.5 against some 17.5 TC's at my local track and did pretty well, for a round...Its fast..and my 17.5 Sonic is dominating , so Im guessing the 21.5 Sonic will get it done as well

My favorite vintage car by HPI is their '67 Corvette. Not legal for VTA but I still use one for club VTA racing. Fits my TC3 just perfect.

I made this one to run in USGT locally with a 21.5. It comes with a unique spoiler and it looks great on the tail end! I didn't want any graphics other than the faux carbon fiber on the hood. The lines of that body with Faskolor purple metallic just looks great!
