Bring my "vintage" losi xlt back on the road- the old "Psychotic Reaction" motor (unk trinity type motor) is on the way out- it's like 30 years old sooo..... my racing days are over so this will be just a dirt runner maybe a track (if they ever reopen here in socal) just for fun I am looking at a 12t 3 pole motor of some kind ? my gearing is
24t pinion/90 t spur gear (it came with the kit as I recall and it's what is on there now) any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

im guessing brushed is what you want? on 8.4v? .. i'd look at a 'Yeahracing hackmoto 13T' on ebay if your dead set on a low turn motor, its liable to run hot and not last long offroad .. a 16-17T will be more durable with loads of torque in a 1/10th truck ...
