Default My Old E-Maxx

I just pulled this thing out of the shed after it sat there collecting dust for over 10 years.
I forgot what a beast this thing is.
Fast Lane Chassis
GA bulks
GA diff cases
Titanium skids (I forgot who made them)
Unlimited Engineering steering
Hitec 5955TG steering servo
All aluminum gears for the 2 speed transmission (I forget who made those too)
All steel shafts and CV's
Oversize wheels and tires
Everything else is RPM

So, I need a motor and ESC combo.
I'm thinking of going 6S this time. If I remember correctly a lot of guys at the track were starting to go 6s when I was getting out.
Better run times and less fires from what I understand.
We had lots of fires back in the day with the crazy mods we did to the old Mamba Max to get it to run 4s in our converted 1/8 scale gas buggies converted to electric.
I was going to try to run two 3s packs. I need to refresh my electrical/battery knowledge. I can't remember the whole series or parallel thing.
So I need a motor/esc combo that will support 6S lipo batteries








Anyway, I'd appreciate any comments or advice to help me get this thing rolling again.
