Well, I tried the 25 turn motor in the car, and though it is much improved with the Neos, it is still a pretty wretched performer.

But... here's a killer combo...

Start with a stage 2 armature, remove 5 turns per pole. Advance the timing by cranking the commutator counterclockwise (when looking at the commutator end of the motor) about 15˚. Drop it into an Auldey BB can with Drac's Neo magnets.

I don't need to "kick start" this one like I did the others.

What I don't know is if the stock ESC will be able to handle this kind of abuse. :lol:

In the car, the acceleration is pretty decent, despite using the 11T gear set.
I don't have the space to top it out in my living room, but it seems to hit better speeds than my tweaked S2 drag, which can hit top speed in about 15 feet or less.
