Can anyone recommend a race competitive stock motor to use in my B4? I will be using a Quantum Competition 2 ESC.

Honestly, there are plenty to choose from & any of them sould be fine for most applications, the real deciding factor would be how tight the track is(or how much jumping you do, more might mean the need for more torque, as does a tighter track), how you prefer to drive a car(if you can carry speed well or prefer to slow yourself, set up a line & punch your way out of corners) & your gearing options(some motors require MUCH more precise gear ratios to keep them from overheating than others). That being said, Trinity's Revenge of the Monster stock(which we usually just call the Monster) is pretty much the standard by which all others are measured today, it's hard to go wrong with it, but I also like the P2K 2(also by Trinity) & have gotten good power from Reedy's MVP(though it has a tendency to run VERY hot, more than I prefer)..... :cool:

Thank you. Your information got was helpful on during some more research and I was able to find this very good article comparing the motors you mentioned. Here is the link for others who may be curious http://www.rc-touringcars.net/reviews_stock.php

I would go with a Monster. You can buy them tuned by motor-tuners for about the same price as an untuned one. www.axxis-racing.com
