Re: Welcome to the official thread for drifting!

Types of motors:

You are going to need any motor with a lot's of torque. If you can afford it, get a brushless system, they have loads of torque, require little maintenance and have great run times. Many different people use the motors that come stock with most kits. Those are the silver ones.

Also the higher the number of turns the more torque the motor will have. Example would be a 27T will have more torque then say a 9T. So drifters use 27T or around there.

Brushless motors will last a longer time then a normal brushed motor. Also it requires less work then a brushed motor. Hardly any maintance is required, after a lot of runs. You get a huge runtime, more torque, and more top end. The only downside is the price.
