Which motor - 10-07-2007, 01:08 PM
Well I'm looking to get a new motor in the off season because I probably won't be back at racing until January. Just wondering out of these 10 which would be the best. If I don't have one listed that you think is the best in my $300 price range tell me.

Edit:The $300 price range has some flex but no more than $50.

Thanks,
Gary

to put in what? go with a .21 for fuel economy IMO and rule the go-techs and piccos and werks out........ JMO

get an RB. I have a ws7III and It rocks, easy to tune, and it dont flame so far. Im getting another RB soon just to have as a backup(I think a c6)

my choices would be
RB ws7III, c6 or even the new seven, depending on what the application is for...truggy im assuming, then get a c6bb.

Yes it's for a truggy but From the sounds of it it's already narrowed down to RB or OS but what about the Novarossi?

What about it? your just going to buy something that nobody will recommend anyways...
This thread will become nothing but a jumbled mess of opinions, stretch on for EVER and in the end you'll probally end up buy like a used F'in motor that wasnt evven on the list.
So who cares?

Dont mess wit my sig Line tune!

Rocco this was already the list of motors I was going to choose from anyway. Also there's no reason to be a dick, sorry but that's just what you came across as. I will never buy a used motor again and if you want to close this thread close it I really don't care I just thought I'd get some opinions first.

I like the OS for its bottem and easy tunning. Id also like to try the P5X one day but just when I thought Id have to buy another motor after 2 year of use, Hobby Services sends me a brand new 07 Vspec for warranty replacement. Oh well maybe in another year.
