Correction! When I eyeballed it, it looked the same as stock, but after installing it, it does allow for bigger gears! The biggest I was able to fit was a 30T. Not the 33T I wanted, but still a big step up from 25T.

Made some big changes to complete the 8S transformation to support speed running.

Biggest change was to remove the slipper. Bought a slipper eliminator from eBay and paired it with a 57t spur gear from SaGa:

Installed Hot Racing aluminum center driveshaft.

Swapped out the badlands with PMT road tires.

Bumped up the BEC voltage to 8.0V on the ESC.

Finally, installed the 8S battery.
