CEN Matrix TR video question
I saw the video and the truggy looks awesome, but my question is what engine is in the truggy? I'm thinking its a OPS, but is it the .21P or something else?

RE: CEN Matrix TR video question
yea, it s a OPS radical........
there about 289.00 to 299.00.....they got on the retailers on the pricing?
so they may have gone up to the 320.00+ range.....
then there is the STS .28 bout 160.00 to 180.00
just as fast but more "Grunt" with a more smoother throttle responce....
but with out the "Name"
many like the OPS because they "Feel it has more Torque"
but only because it is more like an "On Off Switch" giving the Impression it has "Torque"
the same can be Acomplished with "ANY Motor" with by "Adjusting" the clutch engagement...
in Andy's case we have seen him drive with motors we figured would not run??
and he still kicked butt.......
so for motors for name/price go OPS,Nova,RB and O.S.,and Rossi black magic
and will have a big dent in Wallet..
side by side ....speed wise....and we tried a "GRIP OF MOTORS" !!! this is what we do alot....
but people are not sure of the "Name" or because there "Inexpensive" they might feel are "Cheap"
but these are just as fast if not faster in MANY cases.....
(in no particular order)
STS .28 for price this and the Dynamite are hard to beat!
the piston and Sleeves are also under 50.00
Werks Racing B7 .28
Picco .28
Dynamite Platinum .28 SG (really is a Good motor!!)
LRP Z.28R Spec 3 (at 169.00 this is a KILLER MOTOR)
ran this one once for testing.....
with alloy shoes and 1.1 springs and a good "Bell"
was easy to out run with many with Modded motors
really do not recommend trying to have someone modd this one?
will honestly be "Overkill" with uncontrollable power Band....
Team Orion Wasp .28 also under 200.00 excelent motor
hope some of this can help
