i haven't done any hardcore testing with lots of motors and stats but i'm impressed! the test rig was my lipo and iwavered zzse. this car will destroy a crappy motor in a matter of minutes, the xtrek is just fine after a run
this rig also exagerates the difference between a weak motor and a strong one. i tested out a tomy 2.2, 3.0 (THE most underated motor in the micro world!), a good perfection 3.8. slowest was obviously the 2.2. the 3.8 is pretty fast and powerful, but the lucifer 3.0 was a touch faster and had more torque. so last i try the xtrek and..... DAYUM!!
this motor is awesome!! easily had a big increase in power over the others.
so i can honestly say this motor is one of the best i've used ever! even better than the purple zz 3.4!! and that's not all, you get 2 in the pack plus a really cool pinion removing tool (which no one needs but hey, it's fun!)![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_fro.gif)
