Biggest spur and smallest pinion you can find. I had a 7700 CC on mine and a 90ish spur with an 11T pinion and it was still crazy fast and heated up. Not an ugly comment but when you burn that motor up get something around 4000kv and enjoy it. Plenty fast enough and longer runtime and cooler operation. Hope this helps.
