I have done some road testing and my initial thoughts are that this is a pretty good slot cat. Maybe a little too much motor for a short track. On my plastic Scaley sport layout the stock magnet location does not provide sufficient downforce to be very helpful. On my mdf track the excessive torque of the motor causes a lot of wheel slip and loss of acceleration. I'll probably get a lower rpm motor and replace the press on plastic rear hubs with some scaley rims and some Paul Gage soft urethane tires.
