I was thinking the 2.5d, or maybe something around the 1700-1900kv range (but Mike only has the 2.5d in stock). 2600kv is just too fast for the limited gearing choices in a buggy for a small track IMO. I'm sure it will be more gentle on the batts too. And I'm already running a 14T pinion. Don't get me wrong, the 2d is an awesome motor - definitely not lacking in torque and still stays cool!

Yeah, the balancer plug idea was just a spur of the moment thing, but now I think I'll do that to all my Li batteries as well. Or, I can just swap the two I have to whatever vehicle I happen to be running at the moment.
