Thanks. Lucky for you over there in Belgium ! Seems like electric 1/8 is slow to catch on in the UK could be the RAIN and more RAIN. But hopefully will do soon along with the mugen mbx6e.... looks awesome

Hi

i m a bit confused as to what combo to go for?
As i m looking at getting a tekin combo for a mbx6, can you explain why one is better than the other .
The reason i ask is the tracks i will be racing at vary in style ie one track is short tight and twisty and another is large bigger straights but still tecnical another is just wide open easy flowing.

i only want to purchase one motor due to costs so which will be better and can i do anything to compensate for the type of track i will run on.

I guess as i race in uk i will be racing with nitros so i want to have at least the same performance as them if not more.

2050....

I think its a good compromise between speed and "comfort" for a Buggy. I used to run a 2200 (MMM) combo in both a Buggy and Truggy. Spot on in the Truggy but the car itself felt a bit sluggish. In the Buggy it was just brute power... A tad to much in fact. But it chewed Nitros as breakfast.... So I think 2050 will be spot on.

A quick and shameless plug for those who are interested in the T8/RX8 combos: clicky

We used a 2050kv motor on a small to medium size track with good results with 15T/46T gearing IIRC.
