I really wish I could help you but I have no idea about anything to do with Touring Cars :/ I know on Fantom's site here:

http://fantomracing.com/motor-tips.php

It says you would want an FDR of about 9.0 (for small tracks) up to a 7.5 (for larger tracks) so I hope that helps a little. You can also ask this question on the on-road thread

6.5?!?! YIKES!! I have a 7.5 that I am thinking about tossing into my buggy when I get around to putting it together but I might be getting a 22 so it'll have to wait

Here is my T4 ready for some stock action later tonight (whoops, need some sleep!! ). Just finished this body yesterday I'm no pro but I like the way it came out:





Just ran it on Saturday as well with my new Ion 3 17.5 Holy power!! Definitely gave me all of the power I could ask for!

Just wanted to say thanks to Troy and Jeff for the awesome power. Took the win in the 17.5 class at the second round of the Shortcourse Showdown. Also finished 7th in 4x4.

Ordering a ION3 8.5 with the mod 13mm rotor and abec 7 bearings for my SC10 FT. Can anyone tell me if it plays well with my MMP? Also, gearing recommendations? I see 16-84 or 17-87 as the best fdr combo, but any tried and true pointers are welcome. Thanks

Noticed on the team drivers set-ups they are using V203 for the Tekins in TC, why is that?

Hey guys, Any thoughts on the new Killer volts 6000 28c packs vs the 60c packs? I see on the fantom site they are preferred for low traction stock racing. But I also see you guys posting about 60c packs being used in 17.5 blinky, where i would have thought the 28c pack would be preferred

Alright thank you, I was just wondering because V208 and V212 were available in 2010, but V203 was used.
