I run 5.5 in 2WD and 4.5 in 4WD. The motors are more than I'm ever going to need in either class, and I just dial out some of the throttle using the arc and the EPA on the transmitter. Not ideal I know, but an acceptable solution which enabled me to buy the fastest motors I would ever need, and a way of limiting (fine tuning) the power and top speed to the track. As someone that has raced for a few years now, I would like to think they are'nt too fast for me to handle, however I would not recommend these winds to a new racer.

Dan - get the 4.5 in. G - Get a 3.5. Then you lot might be accompanying me in the B final instead of your usual A final positions.

Thanks for that suggestion. I dont think I will add pre load to different sides of the car as I feel it would comprimise handling more than I currently suffer. I may try it in practice, but I'm not sure how confident I would be of the car jumping predictably. On the higher grip available on the tracks I race on, Nick is probably right in that it wont affect me. As long as we dont have many starts on the "patio" grid at Bury in the future.
