The motor is rated at 7550 kv. Not running any boost that I know of. My lhs said I should be running like 60+ with that setup. The car seems like it's an animal too. That's why I question the 47mph readout. Should I lower the pinion to say like a 23t? I just felt like if I ran too much acceleration I wouldn't be able to control the car off the line.
