yep and thats what i am running on for a while and i can tell you the 7700 has some pretty crazy torque so i think it will do good.

yup yup

did ur other stuff come?

[mach1stang]

heck no!!!!

that sucks! well atleast u know its goin to be this week

mach, I have run drag cars, although it does nothing for me. Since you already have a 7700, go for it. If you get the opportunity to get another motor, I'd go for the 5700. Have you ever run a drag car?

What cells are you going to run? If you are sticking with nimh (to stay "legal") be sure to check the website of the manufacturer of your choice. Personally, I'd go for the GP3700. They are lighter than the higher capacity cells, and unless things have changed, they also have less internal resistance and will deliver more punch.

AAngel i have not ran a rc drag car but me and my dad run full scale drag cars so i get the basics to tuning and stuff. i am really going to try and make this more of a "chassis car" because the 6 magnet drag motors will be pretty hard to compete with and if i can get a car that will stay consistant it makes it alot easyier to drive and thats where the mm comes in with being able to tune the motor so this is the car that will stay hooked up the whole time. and yes i am working on a project now and i think i am going to be ordeing alot of gp stuff for most of my projects unless i can get some good ib's.
