That's ok, I don't take that the wrong way, the worse I ever got my but kicked was in a 40 and over stadium truck race at the big kahuna two years ago. GNS and I though we might have a chance for some trophies in the 40+ masters race, and that's the race we got obliterated in.......LOL! Those old guys sure are smooth......

Has anybody on this thread ever heard of or used an rc motor called Ten shock for 1/8 and 1/10 cars? If so, what has been the verdict as far as performance and quality? They are made in china and are 6 pole motors. I believe they are mostly for boats from what I've read.

I've never heard of them Wade, but I'm not that up on new elctronics that are out....sorry!

Thanks Tip, just checking myself and am curious. I also would like to know if the mamba's are 4 or 6 pole motors (or 2 for that matter). I'm referring to the 2650 kv motor in particular.

Just found out that the 2200 & 2650 are 4 pole design.

Just a quick glance and I am thinking that is the same OEM as the "Trackstar" (Turnigy) if so they have got pretty good reviews on URC and RCU.
Kinda like this one

Thanks JJ, I believe you are right, ten shot motors are being pretty widely used in europe from what I've read and are having much success. Also they have a lower rotating mass due to rotor machining. Also they are 6 pole.

Snow early...then snow...sleet and rain after midnight. Total nighttime snow accumulation of 5 to 6 inches. Lows around 30. East winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts to around 25 mph.
