It is not a touring car but I had it setup like one. I can't imagine a c size motor pushing it much faster but then again I have never tried one. I should be able to get near 60 on just 6 cells if that's the case.
Can you run a c size motor with a warrior 9918? Is 6 cells the max for a c size motor? I may have to try it:) It would certainly lighten the car quite a bit and that is one big key to speed runs.

It is not about which is faster. Its the time a motor takes to spool up. The C type motors accelerates much faster in a touring car than a 540 size motor when 6 cells pack is used, but the 540 brushless will easily outperform a 380 brushless at higher cell counts, but still, you will feel the smaller accelerates a bit faster than its big bully, though they are incomparable when you take speed as a term of measure.
