I'm knew, I just got a AQ MC Cat and I was told it needed a rear motor brace if you keep the tub, But I saw a boat with the tub cut out so everything was moved to the bottom of the boat so it need a full motor brace which I ordered. Now I will be racing of course on 4s and then playing on either 5 or 6s. Do I need the rear motor ring/mount for the UL-19? Should I go for the full mount? No need to worry about it. Just want to make sure I have a full list when I put in my order with OSE.

The UL-19 mount is pretty beefy. It should be fine for whatever you do.

No issue with the existing mount running at 65mph

You don't need a rear brace only if you think the end of the motor your using to mount the motor wont bend.:doh:
Remember, the full weight of the motor is suspended off the motor endbell, so what happens when your boat is bouncing through the water, getting air and slapping down onto the water................... don't worry it wont put the bearings in a bind :confused2:.
Mount your motor solid at both ends and it will be much happier:noidea:.
