The biggest spur you can fit with Mike's mount is a 48 (without modification).

I wouldn't go with any smaller pinion than 12t (there just isn't good mesh w/ smaller pinions).

With the 2050/kv motor on 6s with bowtie tires(typical truck racing tire) and 12/48 gearing you would be geared for 67mph. Way too fast.

There are two problems I see:

1. The 2050/kv tekin motor is a buggy motor. For a maxx you want a truggy motor, and specifically for your setup, one with a lower kv.

2. UE super diffs. "UE" diffs are just relabeled ofna buggy diffs. This lower buggy ratio was meant for use with a center diff and buggy size tires. With a maxx transmission there is enough gear reduction to use "UE" buggy diffs, but when you switch to a center diff "UE" diffs are geared a little high.

The solution:

Get the 1700/kv tekin TRUGGY motor. On 6s with bowties and 12/48 gearing you will be geared for 47mph.
