Glad this isn't my truck because it's rapidly becoming a money pit. I think my buddy would have been better off to have just bought a BL Emaxx, ERevo or Savage Flux and been done with it. lol

You really should go up to at least a 4s battery. I run 4s and 20/65 gearing. On 3s I run 20/58. That gives good speed. With your combo you could go 22/58 and be ok on heat on 3s.
2200kv is a low KV when going though a tranny and axles so you have to gear up ALOT to comp.

To say I was surprised at how slow it was is an understatement. A "Walmart" RC is faster. lol

Lol if I wasn't such a diy junkie I would have gone that route and saved at least 200 bones....

Here is a 58t spur that will fit... It says Jato but is the same. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXKLZ9&P=ML
Also adding more batterys will help!!! You may not want to gear it way up on 6s you may burn up your motor.

None of those spurs in the links will fit the Tmaxx trans it has. This trans uses the old style spur with the "pencil eraser" slipper pads. I'm more or less going to throw pinions at it until it can at least hang with my BL Blitz......keeping up with my Savage Flux is out of the question. lol

I looked on eBay and I found Kimbrough's 66T spur. If the pinion experiment doesn't work, I will buy the Kimbrough and see what happens. This is just another part I'll have to tell him to buy. lol
