Talking Went a little overboard on my new motor

I bought a Mamba 7700Kv for my slash. I am running a 2-cell 4900 mah Lipo. This thing is insane fast, but its doable. I have learned to take it easy and gas it when needed. This thing is fun. I'm going to the track later. I did buy this motor system with the intention of eventually pulling it and transferring it to another car, I was looking at the Novak 10.5 system to eventually sit in the slash, but i am like a little kid when it comes to this stuff, and i wanted speed.

I spent way too much on this thing already. and i still need to get a better charger, picking that up tomarrow. This thin is crazy fast, does wheelies when the tires grab, im still learning to drive it with all the power.

You can never have too much power, just not enough traction.

If your pulling wheelies your slipper is too tight. A stock motor will pull wheelies.
