What are the most popular combinations:

27t brushed
17.5 4 cell
21.5 Lipo
Eli....I have raced it that way in the past and IMHO the 27t 4cell combo can be fast if not the fastest combo. But it requires all the work to keep the motor in top shape. 21.5 lipo is the next best option speed wise and there is no maintenance required. If you want to do all the work then feel free to run 27t it will be quick....unless you are on like a 110ft plus straight track then the brushless motors will pull that biger gear more.
