It could need cleaning, take one of the brushes out, and look at the comm. If its shiney and bright, there's another problem. If its black & tarnished , get a Comm Stick, & polish up the comm. If the stick can't get all the marks off the comm, ask someone at your track if the can true the comm.

How old is it? Also, look at the brushes, if they are scorched, look burned, they need replacing, too. If you have new brushes in the motor, they may not be seated, yet.

also check to make sure the motor isnt hooked up backwards. That would make the motor run retarted.. i think anyway...
