Touring Car Brushless motor,what KV ? - 07.13.2010, 11:06 AM

I've decided to ditch my go fast project due to several reasons and have ultimately gravitated towards to a new endevor.

Our Local Chicken Wing restaurant "Quaker Steak and Lube" will be hosting Asphault oval racing on Monday nights and I think this should be fun. The class I'm shooting for will be Nastruck themed. Any 1/10 scale TC with a truck body. So far they have not set limits on motor/esc and battery choices so that leaves the options wide open.

I've decided on this for a roller;

It may be a bit over board but I can't see settleing on something cheaper when the price difference is only a hundred bucks from all plastic to full carbon fiber and anodized aluminum ?

Now the question is since I will be running 2s to keep it light weight and with the track being oval (not sure on straight away lenth yet) what would be a good KV choice to run with a MambaMax Pro ??
I would also consider a NEU motor for this app if I stick with this ?

This might also double as a straight line drag car out at the Friday night spot on rare ocassions with a 3s so if this is feasable BONUS.

I'm open to suggestions for the TC guys !
Thanks,
J.

EDIT; Scratch the NEU motors of the list, Just looked and everything is 5mm shaft except the 1100series and not sure they're big enough motors ?
The main problem lies with a 5mm bore 48pitch pinion being non-existant to my knowledge ?


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.
