racing on road-mod motors

[127.0.0.1]

We normally race off road trucks and buggies, but might get out more
this Summer to race TC3's at asphalt tracks.

What turn motors are best for on road?

We own lots of singles and doubles maybe a triple or two, and our ESC's
can handle down to 6 turn motors.

Many of the tracks we are thinking about have longer than 125 foot
straightaways, if that helps.

I raced a HPI Pro2 about a year ago and ran a 10x3 Orion...was extremely
fast and had plenty of top and punch out of the corners.

Last summer I ran an HPI RS4 with an 11 turn double.
That was the best set-up I came up with after trying about
six or seven different combos. Ended the season with a
23 tooth pinion/90 tooth spur.

Hope this helps.
