I have problems with the axles breaking though so I'm getting the MIP CVD's. I don't really care about response time because with as fast as electric motors spool up you wont be able to tell if their is a delayed reaction time of the car. Also I fly planes so I'm used to things going fast and driving ahead of myself.

P.S. I crashed my first plane today because of a trim problem.[:@] I couldn't pitch the plane left even with the stick fully left so my instructor adjusted the trim it got worse and eventully hit the ground after going staight down for like 100 ft at full speed!

LoL, im still alive! Ive read nothing but GREAT things about the reedy quad mag, i dont know much about the Lrp V10 Spec(sorry to say) but i guess it depends on how much torque you want compared to top end speed.

well the Lrp V10 prduces 170w of power and only costs 26.99. and can run on 9.6volts so I wouldn't have any problems with the motors blowing up (venom bites bad!). I was just questioning the quality because of the price.

Also just go to towerhobbies and type in motors and it will show up on the second page.

well, ive been bored lately because im waiting for my orders to come in. So i started to put together all the old plastic rustler parts. I was thinking of using pede skid plates to raise the rustlers ride height. Id just have to make a home for the servo and get 73mm steering rods and a traxxas pede servo saver.....i might try this.

Just a random fact, you guys do know that you can use rc10gt bodies and they fit perfectly right? Also atomik makes a buncha prepainted bodies so you can just get a prepainted atomik rc10gt body and use that if you want more body choices.
