OBR makes great motors. You want their motors designed to produce more torque. The reedcase high torque version would get it moving.

I have an RCMK on the way but do not have experience with it yet.

Another option will be the 36cc from RAMTech. It is a 2 bolt similar to our 30.5cc in a 36cc configuration. Eric from Flowsystem Racing is working on these with Rob. I will be trying one in my MT with a belt drive as soon as they get them in and can build me one. This motor should have the low end grunt I'm looking for to run a taller ratio with the MT wheels.

You could build your own. ESP makes some monster cylinder kits. You get more bang for your buck that way.

This is what I run and it spins the huge MT tires without complaining...

If you're running the stock 30.5cc engine, you don't have to order a crank. Any other engine, you need the crank.

You'll need this, as well...

And a few of these cylinder gaskets...

Like I said, you get more for your money by building your own, and it's not that difficult to do.
 
DIY is almost always the most economical. If you have the time is can be more fun and rewarding. :)
