so idealy you would want a motor with a lot of torque so you can gear it high (bigger pinion) still have accelaration and faster top speed,but if you have a low torque motor you couldnt do it because it would struggle with the high gearing and have slow accelaration/over heat so you would have to gear it down which would slow the top speed but give you accelaration back.is that right? so the answer to my original question is that the specs the manufacturers put on paper are pointless becouse they give you no indication/comparison to how much torque/speed etc a motor of the same wind has from one brand to another?
