What is your current pinion spur setup??
Final drive ratio focus should be 10.5:1 I believe on a 2wd slash VXL brushless is 3500kv 3s capable and stock the slash should have come with gearing options as well not that the slash can’t handle 3s at 3500kv so that is where I would start and if you don’t like the speed adjust from there.
