Will a 7.5 motor have more top end speed than my 17.5? I know the 7.5 will have more torque.

RE: Picking a good nitro 1/8th scale buggie

So rtr buggys with larger than .21 are ok. I guess they are not the fastest thing on the block but, would work for a beginner like me. I do have a slash I drive every day.

RE: Picking a good nitro 1/8th scale buggie

If just starting out dont most tracks require a .21 motor in a buggy for novice/sportsman class? Some of the RTR buggys have a larger motor and would not be suitable for racing. Is this correct?

RE: best beginner 1/8 scale nitro buggy

I am also new at this and open class is not where I would want to be. I was looking at the Matrix R2 but, it comes with a .28. So that would not work.
What does it take to go from buggy to truggy?

Can you race a .28 motor in the 1/8 buggy class for sportsman/novice or does the motor size not matter?

RE: Newbie Help 4wd or 2wd

RC10T4 is 2WD. I am leaning toward 4WD buggy. Trucks are not popular here. Some one said 2WD is faster because it's lighter and was wondering, does that sound right to the rest of you?
