Best brushless motors makes ?

[andys]

Following on from my post asking about winds (4.5 / 5.5 / 6.5 etc) i've arrived at the conclusion that I need some new motors.

I currently run an LRP X11 6.5 and a LRP X11 4.5, both with sintered rotors in my 4wd. I run a 1st generation novak 6.5 with sintered rotor in my 2wd.

Today at Bury indoors, I started off with the 4.5, big mistake, too much torque, so switched to the 6.5. Much better, but lacked top speed compared with other cars. The 6.5 in my 2wd was good, but again lacked top end speed.

So... What should I get ? Will a new LRP X12 6.5 be much quicker than my older X11 6.5 ?

Also, I know some people run 7.5 etc in 2wd, but how do you get the speed as mines not quick enough with my 6.5 ? Is an old novak 6.5 going to be slower than a nice new 7.5 for example ?

Lastly, which make to go for and why ?
