Hey Linc,

I think motor choice depends on your application and driving style. I am primarily a basher but do have a nice technical 1/10 offroad track very close to my work place (there's a BMX track even closer hehe). I may put another few packs through with the 8.5 although I really need to dial about -50% expo on my throttle curve to keep traction.

I have a pretty decent selection of motors from 3.5 to 13.5 but don't have a 10.5; I want to use either 8.5 or 13.5 as they are shiny (new) blue Losi motors. My slipper doesn't noticably slip on the dirt although slips like crazy on sealed road so I'm thinking it's probably as good as it'll get for off road.

I look forward to more info and pics on your build, sorry for filling up your thread with my pics.
