The input and suggestions are much appreciated gentlemen.

I'd rather stick with 1/8 scale over 1/10 scale, I like the bigger RC's and definitely want a full body rather than a 1/8 scale buggy format.

The DM1 is a hellava good foundation but one of the faster guys at the spot has a real nice DM1 running a 2650 on 4s and it's wicked fast and sounds like a jet ! After 2-3 quick runs he thermals, I think thats kinda dumb. I want to be able to rip pass after pass and/or just screw around and not worry about heat issues. Hell, 80mph is pretty good start, I may not need anymore ?

I'm thinking the 1521 due to abundance of efficent power, but I also have several other motors in my treasure drawer to choose from. So I have some options.
Castle 2200kv
Castle 2650kv
Castle 1800kv
Neu 1512 2550kv
Tekno 2000kv

The draw back of where they race at is it's only about 500 hundred feet of clean smooth concrete, on each end it's cobblely uneven rough asphault so she's gotta get up to speed and back down again quickly.

I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting. Last edited by Bondonutz; 05.30.2010 at 10:22 AM.
