Default VXL 3500 vs Mamba 5700

VXL 3500 vs Mamba 5700 - which one will give more speed if we run it 11.1v on HPI Sprint 2 gear at 87/35? Thanks

Castle 5700 with 2S Lipo (8 cell NiMH) MAX.
I would highly sugest against runing the 5700 on 3s with the sidewinder/flux esc, it WILL get hot, and will NOT be covered under warrenty.
