I’m fine with letting the long can anglewinders run. Honestly, the benefit of the anglewinder is to get the long can in a sidewinder configuration. It also allows for the magnet affect of the motor to help traction but is nullified on the rally track as it’s copper tape and not magnabraid. They will have oodles of torque out of the hole but might be a serious handful to control without lowering the track power. There is a point where lowering it doesn’t give the motor enough power to fully run and motor variances now come more into play.
I’ve already got a car that came with a sidewinder configuration so I’m just making my thoughts known for the newer racers.
