They may be 9-12V and the xmod may only put out 6V stock, which would = a pretty slow car anyway, but also remember that the X-Mod is a lot heavier than a slot car and those slot car motors most likely draw A LOT more amperage than the x-mod motors do. If you draw too much amperage then POP GOES THE ESC!!!
