Im saying this from my opinion, ceramic bearings are stronger and smoother compared to normal ones. This will give an advantage to high speed touring cars. As for drift I think normal bearings are good enough but you can go for ceramics if you want more spin on the wheels.

If you still want ceramics, you can get from here http://www.acerracing.com/Ceramic_Ball_Bearings-11-1.html

According to real car racers I've met over the years. Higher suspension allows for more aggressive corners, which means drift? I'm not sure if this implies to R/C car.



Also any kaki tourers here?

I'm building a prototype hybrid car inspired by ken block's HFHV which I will name High Speed Universal Vehicle. It should have the ability to Rally Off Road, Tour On Road and Drift. But I'm still wondering what motor should be the sweet spot for this, 5T might be awesome for Tour but its too much for rally, 9T might be good for drift but might be too slow for tour and too fast for rally, 13T is recommended for rally but that sounds really slow for Tour. I want it to live up to its name reaching speeds of at least 75km/h or if possible 100km/h. It would be a dream car.

Done my research, it takes a 3s LiPo for a 9.5t to reach 100kph.

I think I'm just going to get a 9T motor and a full programmable ESC. So I can set the limits to lower when I go rallying.

Thanks though!
