What do you mean by "signs"? Like no it won't work obviously....like if you roll it forward or backwards, the things inside(I think the brushes?) are moving around in a circle like they are supposed to but it just won't move or anything....somehow its screwed up. Do you think I need a new motor?

So you drove it into a curb, reversed, and hit something else? Nice drivin' there, Tex! <chuckle> Well, what I meant was, Does the motor still function? If you took the motor out of the car, still connected to the ESC, turned on the power and gave the transmitter some throttle finger, does the motor spin?
