Neu 1515/2.5D or 1512/1.5Y, 2.5D... which motor?

ZPB- I have the Neu 1512 2.5d smooth can, and it runs 180* in my 8 lb 8ight. I have geared up until my quark got up to 150*.(on a hot day)- I am now at 15/44 and will go up a bit more in gearing. I started at 13/46 and the motor temps have been consistant throughout. I think its underloaded.

I run a 5cell lipo, and this motor screams. I can live with an even 180* (hard on the diff) because this buggy finally outperforms the hot nitros I race against. More acceleration, more top speed, 30 min run time. The only downside is the tall gearing, makes even the Quark seam a bit jumpy. But I'm good with the throttle so I like a lot of power. (I hate hearing 'its too much power - it wont hook up' BAH use yer throttle)

1200w might be a bit much for a buggy after all, Probably just right for a truggy - at 5cells anyway. (and no, I wont go back to 4cells, and you cant make me!) too bad the next step down is a 1509 at 1000w. (the lehner 1930 is 1150, if youve read that thread)
