2 pole motors have their place just like 4 pole motors have. Sometimes more rpm's are needed rather then torque.

Neu motors I compare to the big American V8's
Hacker and Lehner I compare to European V12's
Feigao based motors I compare to turbo charged 4 cylinder engines....they run hot, but put out the rpms for a short period of time

The Medusa I have found a home in the CRT.5 that I got from bustitup and does well in that platform (6lbs). I race it against touring cars up to 50mph with 3.2" foams. 60+mph is in the works.
The same motor in my 10lbs rustler didn't do well.
