Which Motor's best

[New Losi]

I've got a xx4 that I'm picking up it's got a 19 turn motor and I wanted to know what motors you could recommend. Mainly going to be racing outdoor at Cov & Stotfold. It's been suggested 12 turn Peak Vantage would be a good start. Any ideas ??

Ah, you wouldn't be Allan's brother by any chance?

Welcome to racing and to the forum, lot's of friendly advice here!

vantages are good motors as they are fairly low maintenance. if you can, get a spashett edition as these really fly.
alternatively the checkpoints are awesome. again pretty low maintenance compared to normal brushed motors and they have loads of grunt.

i purchased a second hand checkpoint on ebay for £35 from a national driver. he had only used it for 2 meetings and it was imaculate. also goes like the clappers!

Will hopefully see you at some reagionals with Allan in the summer.

Yes I am, he got me back into racing after a 17 year break and now I can't keep away. Thanks for the welcome and advice, I'll keep my eyes open for those motors. I think this forum is great for advice i've been reading for a while now. A bit more practice and try to attend the regionals.

Best advice is make sure you don't beat me

Also Suck up to Jim he has a big pit tent for when its raining.

Your reactions are not as quick as they used to be Allan. You'd best make sure you keep practicing my sights are set high. Can I still have a lift home Sunday if I beat you ??

I bet you get a lot of visitors when it rains Jim !!
