chaserRC special edition motor?

im looking into getting a new motor, but i dont want it to be super fast, ive heard the A-BB is very fast so i think it might not work well in tight places. does the chaserRC special edition BB motor require a turbo, i also dont want to have to buy a turbo ........... yet. or should i just switch out motors, so when i go to open places i can put in the fast motor, and when im inside and in tighter places i can use the slower motor. can any one notice a large difference between the A-BB and the stock motor, i dont want my run time to drain out very fast either . thanks !

the chaser is turbo only, so it will be faster than the A-BB.

then again, you could get the A-BB (cheaper than the X) and use a larger pinion

west, i think you mean a smaller pinion for slower top end . if leaning towards the A-BB and just learn how to control it. i also might end up running on a track made for 1/12 and 1/10 scale cars so top end might be handy there. mini-z, when do you think that you will have more A-BB motors in stock? how much run time do you guys get on the A-BB motor? thanks!

I recommend the A-bb motor %100. Its not too fast to where its insane but its pretty fast compared to a stock motor. Really there is no comparison the A-BB is way faster then the stock. In tight corners it does good. But you might want to get some handling upgrades first.

well ive got an O-plate which should help with traction roll, and a ball diff which i dont think will do anything with traction roll. i was gonna order some stiffer front springs but they were out of stock, ill just get em later . i have a 911 gt3 on my z right now, its kinda narrow. when i earn up some extra cash i think ill get a anti-roll kit from kyosho, a ferrari f360 modena, a mercedes clk (or the toyota supra when it comes out here in the states), and stiffer springs, i cant think of any other things to help that much with handling right now. i can experiement with lowering the car right now because that doesn't require much extra money, mabey another set of springs so if i completly screw up with cutting them ill have a back up set.
