I can say I'm convinced of whatever I want, thanks.
And fyi, I never said they wouldnt run well and quick, but it seems like for any outrunner powered car, there's an inrunner that will do a better job (power/efficiency wise, maybe not easy of mounting).

An outrunner in place of the center diff does have some benefits, but the lack of a slipper and any sort of primary gearing will deter most. I personally think that inrunners, or possibly a hybrid motor, will suit most racing and higher speed cars better.
Now an outrunner in a crawler is much better than an inrunner due to torque. I have a few outrunner crawlers and they are beasts. They are geared low. 10mph max, and only run 3s lipo. Much better than an inrunner, and more power than a brushed motor.
It all depends on what you need.
