mamba-maxx, MGM. the MM is a cheap solution, and it seems to work fine with the Mega motors.

What is the purpose of using a torsen for the CD? Since it sends the most torque to the more unloaded end (opposite from a normal CD), wouldn't it function much like a solid center shaft (depending on fluid viscosity of course)?

I want it to lessen wheelies and I run on a tight track and the front wheelspin will help.

Good choice on the motor. You won't need a lot of AMPs for the Mega. Here are some options:

well im leaning toward the quark because it can handle 6s (if i ever decide to go 6s) and its only $125. i know how smooth the quarks are and i liek the free replacement! ill put a fan on it. (would a fan be enough? or would heatsinks be better?)

quark for $125 ? You're talking about the 65 amp roadster, i guess. I don't think that fits your application.

the motor only pulls 70a, so the 65 will do it pretty well, cheap, smooth, and free replacement fits my app well. i can also step up to 6s if i want to.
