Ok then, probably will not try that then. Any motor/esc replacement suggestions? My motor decided to say goodbye, so right now I don't have a motor.Just imagine the amazing sounds you’ll get when you hit the throttle hard that first time. CRACKLE CRACKLE GRIND CRUNCH BUUUZZZZZ…grunk.
Make sure to record it because You may not get a second chance to run it.
Just understand that these things have trouble taking knocked up 3s power at times. 4s can easily cause bad damage to the drive train. 6s would be like putting a V-8 in an all stock Gremlin.
If you want to try go for it, just make sure to video and post your results.
What pinion are you rocking? Think you could upsize?I have a 3670, 2650 KV surpass motor in it now with a 130 amp Spectrum Esc and it’s pretty good. I’m about to switch to a lighter 3665, 3100 KV Hobbystar motor though. It’ll be a little less crowded under the hood and faster with the higher kv. I think. I’ll find out soon lol.
Right now I’m running at 18t. With the current motor I could easily run a 19 or 20, but with the one I’m about to put in I will start with a 17t. I have to be careful because I run dust covers. The benefit from these covers in dusty south central Texas outweighs the heat concerns for me.What pinion are you rocking? Think you could upsize?
Hmmm..... I wonder how a 21tooth would do.. You should try it and let me know.Right now I’m running at 18t.

I typically have more than one car so I rotate them, giving the hot one time to cool, and keep my temperature gun handy, checking often. But I try to be careful with pinions. I don’t need super top end speed, I prefer strong torque and the quick acceleration that comes with it.
Nah, I max out at a 20t in my parts box. I don’t go for Max speed anyway. Just not my thing. Carving through the dirt jumping obstacles climbing trees are more to my liking.Hmmm..... I wonder how a 21tooth would do.. You should try it and let me know.
However…someday I will put my vorteks back to a speedster, road burner. Perhaps with a long wheel base chassis. SomedayNah, I max out at a 20t in my parts box. I don’t go for Max speed anyway. Just not my thing. Carving through the dirt jumping obstacles climbing trees are more to my liking.
