Ummm....what size? Does it have to be race legal?

I know the Traxxas TRX 2.5 is a very strong motor, so is the Ofna/Picco Turbo 7-port .12. Neither of which are race legal, both being small blocks.

If you are talking big block then I think it might be the new Sirro 27 pro. That thing looks awsome. I cant wait to see it in action.

without modification the largest you can fit is a .15. Dont go larger then .15, there is no need. 1/10 scale touring cars dont need alot of tourque to get off the line.

For small blocks here's a few;

TRX 2.5 .15 1.33 hp

Picco .12 1.95 hp

Fantom FR15 1.35 hp

Sirio .18 1.9 hp

.21's and up are big blocks which require some extensive mods to your 1/10 vehicle in order to use one.
