Default drift motor

so i have a big plan ahead for my rc area of hobbies.
this includes:
a spektrum system,
and build a tt-01 kit.
my question is, what would be a better motor for drifting? the HPi drift meister 19t, or the reedy flash 19t? i might throw on the occasional regular tires for some high speed fun, but what one would be better for drifting? or are they essentially the same? i plan on running a dynamite tazer 12t esc, and probably some nimh battery, somewhere around the 4500mah mark, along with deans plugs.

Both should be fine m8 around 19turns if where you wanna be for a good torquey drift motor and like you said you can change out the tyres and put some speed down too,looks like youve done your homework on setting up a drift package already
Only thing i could add would be looking at the newer designed E version of the TT kit as the front end steering is designed better.
Also the motors with 19x2 etc will add more torque for slower technique drifting i used a method 19x2 with good results

look at the checkpoint money 19T or komodo dragon 19t. i've run both, and both work well. I haven't heard any bad about the hpi motors either

well buying a tt-01 has been in planning for over 1 year. what happened was since that i'm also into bmx and mountain biking, that kid of took over all my time when i wasn't doing homework, and i hadnt even started my revo since like novermber, and now i need a new spark plug, and some parts for my rc18t, so i started looking into this again.
