Well Brian's speed calc calculated ~43mph with 18/46 gearing.. just got back from some bashing, and I did a 44.9mph, and then second pass was 45.3mph very satisfied.
nothing was more than warm, like usual. One thing that happened, that's only happened to me maybe twice since I've been running brushless.. I never use reverse, for fear of shredding my drivetrain (warrior's had no delay between reverse and brake I believe..) the truck was going, spun out, and was rolling a little bit in reverse.. I gave it a little throttle to get it moving forward, and instead it accellerated in reverse. With this gearing, it also has a slight cog when starting low throttle from a dead stop. after it's rolling at say 2mph, control is flawless. I also tried jumping it.. I haven't jumped an RC in.. 4 years maybe? so of course it was a bad ending. too much throttle, and it flew like a fat pig, landing on the right rear tire.. broke the plastic rear suspension pin holder. I also broke both of the rear shock ends, and sheered both front body posts off from flipping it too many times under acceleration on pavement. need to lower the exp. some more.

I'll have video up sometime later tonight. I'm hoping Tower gets me the new rear holder before Thursday, because I'm heading up north for vacation, and would love to run in the north woods :)
