what is the best 17.5t motor

[oldboy]

Hi all
I am looking at getting a new motor to go with my shiny new vampire sr1+ my wife has just bought me for my birthday, at the moment I run a 13.5tmotor on a small indoor track and was wondering whether to go to a 17.5t as this seems popular at other clubs so I could go elsewhere without having to change motors each time. my question is what do you guys rate as the best motor around £50 or below(as funds are restricted as my son also races) also 17.5t or stick with 13.5t.
Thanks in advance Bob

The Thunder Power is quite popular. Also the Turnigy Trackstar is a bargain (£22) if you don't mind waiting for shipping from HK (approx 2 weeks)

Speed passion MMM
G Force
Sky Toro
All good value £50 I have the G force and race on small tracks it has plenty of power available and runs quite cool. The Sky Toro stuff is identical, not had it too long so don't know longievity. Always used the Speed passion motors before that but you don't see many using the 17.5 not sure why.

If you can find one I'd get a vampire 17.5. They have been reduced to £40 as there's a new version coming out.

If not doing BRCA then turnigy track star is the best value for money, and they are very good.

thanks guys, I like the look of the vampire, sp mmm & the thunder power, still can't get my head round the less well known cheaper brands sure their fine or better than fine but niggle at back of my head still thinks their cheaper for a reason, how long do they last

thanks again guys
Vampire now on order from mb, if all goes well I may look at dropping my son to 17.5 as well (try and get him smoother round the track) but I have to admit being a typical bloke I just like the raw speed even if I can't handle it.
