I need a new lower turn motor for my xray t1 drifter. It has a XL5 esc so I know it will handle at least to a 12t 550 motor. I am looking at maybe a 19 or 15t something like that. Just looking for more speed. I have a rtr axial crawler 27t in there right now (my only option) It does ok but I want way more speed. Any recommendations? Thanks guys.

I'm looking at this one.

I'm sure that motor would do great...maybe its time to start saving for a new brushless setup!!
 
Yeah, it's the top of the line motor for drifting. Unless you want to go for a Drift Meister, but that's like going lower class.

If you were going brushless though, you'd have way more possibilities.
 
You'll love that motor. Most people at GroovyDrift run that motor, and they say it's the best. Makes some videos of your drifter.
