Default speed passion in 2wd?

Hi all

thinking of updating from my trusty GTB , I have run sp before and did like the ease of set up, I only run 2wd so no lower than 6.5 so what do people run LPF or GT

I ask as I normaly have to serch the second hand section for my electrics but the LPF is a very nice price at the min

Dave

Depending on whose stats you read, the limit for an LPF equivalent is 8.5 off-road.

But your 2wd car is going to put a lot less strain on the motor than a 4wd would, and there are lots of posts in this forum from people who have run hot motors with the LPF without problems.

So depending on how brave you feel you might get away with it. Or you might not.

If you are looking in the same place that I am for these good LPF deals, the GT Pro deal is not much extra.

A vote for SP LPF from me as mine has survived being plugged in the wrong way twice!

Just had some bad luck with a nosram,so I have gone off them at the min,only esc I have had go up in smoke in about 20years...no idea why

But TBH I like the sp due to the ease of set up, with all the count the number of flashes buisness with some others I get a bit lazy track side on a cold day when realy I should play with the set up a bit more. I have had sp before and to plug in is great
