GO-RIDE: i went sold my 5700 a while back, and got me an ammo brushless 2600kv motor. had it geared up to 19t and it ran pretty well. the track that i normally run on is rather harsh in terms of really able to get on the throttle, but it isnt bad w/ that ammo brushless. but if the weather gets better and i take it to the track i'll tell ya how that 8L works for me. but i went w/ the ofna ext. chassis and some truck size bowties instead of the stock buggy one, and man talk bout such better handling, although i sorta stoled riceman's idea for the tire and wheels from this post
