The thing is , my brother just handed me 2000$ and i want to know if i should be pursuing an rc drive. Esp. in light of the recent meltdown events at death race. Ive just seen too much motor smoke from hub motors lately. including my own. CANT LIFE BE BETTER???????????? :mrgreen:

wondering about switching,
