Not sure they're not trying too...
I guess I don't necessarily follow the bigger and bigger motor theory. Sure it makes more power so you see less peak current draw but at the end of the day, it still requires motor current just to run it due to it's size and the field required to run it... Otherwise, we'd just run the 1717 or bigger and call it a day.
I'm pretty sure the constant uncontrolled wheel spin doesn't help your lap times either so whatever small efficiency gain your getting is lost while your not turning faster laps
It's certainly not like the tekin's are considered underpowered.
It's like saying running big block nitro motors is more efficient because they make a ton of torque so you can gear them up, requiring less rpm and thus allowing for more run time per tank... I have yet to see that work out.
Certainly, a more powerful motor has to work less hard to get the vehicle to speed but there is also a point of diminishing returns. There is something to be said for easy to drive....
Maybe I'm completely wrong here and I'll get one and see for myself but I guess I don't see where the benefits would be here. That being said, Nuz, if you come back praising this thing and you picked up 3-4-5min run time even with the taller gearing and the temps are icy cool, I could see me picking one up for sure...
Just sayin
