I still don't think it's a great motor - especially for a touring car. A touring car has a very lightweight drivetrain and tires and the extra weight of that rotor really slows performance down. A Twist 42 with 4s lipo makes my TC4 uncontrollable. It'll go beyond 60 mph with only a 23 tooth pinion and 72 spur (the diff ratio is 2.5) and stock tires. It'll spin out all 4 tires all the way to 60 mph too. Oh, to give you an idea of how fast this thing accelerates - it literally peels rubber on the concrete and you can see it in the picture. After doing a few laps around my driveway, the tires get over 170 degrees hot!
I'm thinking that the reason I can't go much faster than mid 60 mph is because my batteries won't give me more power. I need bigger lipos.... Currently using 4s 3500 mah Polyquest 12C packs.
