I use RCJAZ regularly and have had excellent service and shipping. Arrives in UK sooner than expected.

I've been shopping on RC Jaz for years and love them. Excellent service and stock.
Yes, its torque and durability make it well suited to club events, provided it meets any class motor restrictions in place.
Inspect commutator condition, measure brush wear and ensure gear mesh is correct. Clean contacts and brushes with ITEM 53486 and replace brushes with ITEM 53581 as needed.
Yes, it is broadly compatible with common touring car mount patterns, though check motor height and pinion clearance before final installation.
Begin with conservative gearing, monitor temperatures during initial runs and bed in the brushes with light to medium load sessions to ensure longevity.
