| Motor Mount Question
I finally have my Mantis chassis and am starting my buildup. I'm running a GD600 with a MM and maxx tranny. Here's my question- does it matter which side you mount the motor on? I've read about "torque twist" but haven't yet experienced it so I don't know which side it affects. I would think the extra weight of the motor could either combat or accentuate torque twist. Any insight is appreciated.

It's not really gonna matter. The twisting comes from the torque that's being put out, that's it. Correct weight placement will help but the name of the game is suspension. That's really what you'll need to counter torque twist and axle wrap.
