I run a 2200Kv combo with a 5S lipo in my Ofna buggy.....geared 17/51 (similar to 16/48 on yours) at the moment which is good for 60 mph according to the radar gun. Stupid acceleration. Tires balloon like crazy.

Its too much for a track but I've got smaller pinions handy for when I do make it out to one.
And larger ones on the way to fulfill my quest for 70 mph.
