This is probably a really daft question but I am very ignorant when it comes to things electrical. What is the little brown / orange thing between the connections on a slot car motor? I guess it is a resistor or capacitor, but why is it there and what difference does it make if it is removed?

I have found this on many old and brand new Scaley cars, I would just leave them for home racing. The Scaley GT40's still run one of best out of the box laps with them on.
