My Racing 1/16 E-Revo
Just thought I'd share some pics of my race setup 1/16 E-Revo. I think the only upgrade left is a Neu 1100 Series motor to save weight and increase efficiency. I also might go back to a HS-82MG servo, but the stock servo actually works very well.
Parts:
MaxAmps 3s 1050 mAh LiFe
Castle Creations Mamba Max Pro
Spektrum SR300
Pro-Line Slipstream Body in Metalic Black
Losi 2.0 Step Pin Tires on Traxxas Gemini Rims
Traxxas Extended Wheelbase Rear A-Arms
RPM Front A-Arms
Lunsford Racing Titanium Pivot Balls
Traxxas GTR Hard-Anodized Shocks
Traxxas Springs (Black and Brown)
Traxxas Aluminum Toe Links
Traxxas Aluminum Pushrods
Hot Racing Aluminum Knuckles
Traxxas Aluminum Wheel Hubs Hex
I only use 1 battery when racing to save weight so the other bay now houses the de-cased ESC and RX to lower the CG and save/balance weight. It may not look like it but the electronics are actually very secure and protected. I've also cut away plastic notches for the wires.

Pretty sweet looking rig.

How fast is this thing and how much did it all run you? I'm slowly upgrading mine but i don't know if i would go as in-depth as this.

With this setup I consistently place 1st in local oval races against 10th scale and 1st-3rd in short course racing with 10th scale short course trucks. As far as MPH when I used to use it for bashing I got it up to around 80 on 6s LiFe on speed runs, but that's no good for racing. It's hard to say how much I've spent but I'd say I'm about $800-1200 into it including the truck, upgrades, and replacement parts from breakage.
