Tamiya sports tuned motor or standard 540?

Does the Tamiya Sports Tuned RS 540 motor bring any advantages above the stock 540 motor as supplied with the Blitzer Beetle kit?

The Sport Tuned motor is a 23 turn motor rather than 27 turn like the stock
540 motor, so you should see more speed. However, with reference to your
other thread, get an F/R esc first. If you want Tamiya, the TEU-101BK is a
nice little number that will easily handle the Sport Tuned motor.

Yeah, but Tamiya seems to be rather expensive, maybe I'll buy a Carson
Speed.

Depends on your opinion of expensive I suppose. There are plenty of them on
ebay at what seem to be reasonable prices.
