Default Stupid fast

I was Lookin to make my CRT.5 stupid fast and made a stupid choice. I bought a castle 6900 system thinking this would do it. Well it didn't. Now I'm wondering what would be better to make it 65 mph+ fast.

Thinking of getting the MMM 2650 designed for 1/8 buggies. Would this combo be what I'm looking for or what wil I need?

You would be better off with a 2200kv rather than the 2650kv.
I recommend no more than 4S for racing with this motor, but if you want to go stupid fast there ya go.

I'm going to have a setup for racing and bashing. I want the MMM for bashing and the Sc for racing. Out of the 2400 and 3800 Sc system is the 2400 faster?

lowe4r the kv level is less speed but more torque and vice versa

So then the ideal setup would be a mmp with a 3800. The mmp would enable me to run cooler

Much better motor than the velineon; 4 pole neu, compared to a 2 pole s-sized feigao.

The vxl motor has a shorter magnet and windings than a S can feigao... So technically it is an XS motor... Similar power output though.
MMP +3800 on 3s will get you get you 53mph on 4" tires with a 16t pinion.

I have a Slash 4x4 with a MMM 2650 on 4s and it's ridiculously fast. My friend had the same but had the 2200 and I walked him like he was stuck in mud. For shits and giggles I threw a 6s in there and it was STUPID FAST! I believe that's what you're looking for lol Oh I also had it geared 25T pinion and a 50T spur, yeah you can imagine how ridiculous it was. Many people will tell you not to run a 6s on the 2650. It can handle it however not for sustained periods. If you call, even Castle will tell you it can handle it for short bursts like speed runs. But doing them over and over and running a whole battery pack through like that might kill it. But for short High Speed runs, it can handle it no problem, but your tires wont!

I also have a spare Novak 4.5 550. What type of speed would that give me on 2s?

that 4.5 would be faster than what you have and run cooler, you just need a controller for it.
