The pinion is quiter, smoother, more responsive, and less hassle. So give that a shot. But you will need to order a long shank pinion AND the long shank pinion motor mounts. Good luck Stum!

I used my dremel on the end to trim it for a PERFECT fit.. the hole point was it should be RTR or state that you need to do work. If I buy things that will need tweaking I expect it and have no issues. The clutch really tames the brushless torque in tight turns and stop and go.. w/o hurting top speed. This is really a must when racing iMO. I have tried both before (not w/ this exact kit) but I know how it feels. You are right about the direct drive w/ pinions though.. it is quite a bit more quiet.
man a 1.5d on a buggy.. THAT is a SUPER fast motor, too fast on 4s iMO. I bet dropping to a 1y, 2d or similar 1512 motor you get better lap times.. that motor can't be geared right iMO, unless you have some of those football field size tracks around you :) I use a Medusa v2 2000kv 60mm motor and no nitro can touch me.. in my v3 8ight buggy; temps around 140 after hours of play. (nice motor for $100.00 can't go wrong) I ran a 1.5d in my erevo all summer and at the end of the summer ended up throwing a bearing and ordering in a new one from neu and they sent a 2.5d by mistake and I kept it and for the last race turned in my fastest lap times all summer.. slower is faster sometimes ;) Anyway.. I plan on dumping the 1.5d in my tekno v3 truggy kit here soon, but I'm sure it will be too fast.. I wish there was a 12t clutchbell.
