Is this CRAZY?? 380 Motor for RC Drifting??

I have been wondering about this for awhile - and with some help from a friend - was finally able to give this a test! Our drift cars are very lightweight, roll on hard tires, over smooth surfaces....perhaps we don't need all of that torque from a 540 motor. Perhaps we can reduce our weight further using a 380 motor. Does it work?? I test it to find out! The motor that was in my car, ReveD Absolute 1: https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
