New Setup
 

Hi guys this is my first post here, I need some help with my new setup.
I want to setup a 1/5 scale baja truck for drag racing 132' using the conversion kit. Can anyone tell me what kind of amps i can expect to see on 12s using a 600kv motor? I am trying to figure out which ESC and pinion and spur gear I am gonna need, thanks.

Ok I think I am going with the MGM ESC and the Poseiden 2028-C6 motor, any opinions???

Sounds good to me!
But note that I am basing my opinion on brands, not specs since I do not know that, sorry!

Ok ordered the motor and conversion kit, now need to figure out how many amps I am gonna see. So I can order the correct ESC...
Can someone help me to figure this out or tell me how to do it?
12s packs 600kv motor 16 pinion spur 57-54, I want top speed to be 70 mph no more but; I want to get to top speed in a 132'!!! All advice is appreciated...

Biggest and baddest that you can afford

I got the MGM 25063-3 gonna be fun now, time to build!!!

w/ the lerner 3080, it's good for 19hp, until you burn up the batts anyway

I got it all together now and on 12s it has stupid power!!! Need to tune it some for some racing...

Last night was the first time I was able to put the power to it, and it pretty much spun the tires the whole 132'!!! So now to tune it for traction...

I put on some bigger rear tires and they made a big difference, still spinning them alot but is going straight now!!!

pics or it never happened :D

Ok here are some of my build pics...
