[Mod Man]

The reason for it is multifacted;

#1 I had that motor lying around from a previous project.

#2 I am planning to gear it up this summer and will need the power to move a 16.5 pound truck.

#3 I am sick of running small motors at their limit. I have had much better luck running motors that are overkill. They run cooler, more efficient, and have no cogging problems. Also a large motor tends to run low RPM better for low speed running, yet will still twist when needed.

This truck is not a crawler, not a racer, not a shelf queen. It is something I have always wanted to do, sort of a semi scale (motor under the hood, roll cage, straight axle) truck I can mount an interior in and just have fun running inside or out. This is what I wanted ever since Tamiya came out with the Bruiser.
