I was wondering what you on about. That 8T is pretty quick. If I got that sort of performance out of my savage and the electrics stayed cool I'd be happy. The 350Z in the background is quick too I bet.

The temp here vary from about 5-15c (41-59f) in middle of winter to around 25-40c (77-104f) in summer. I have used BrianG's speed calculator and I may try an 11xl. It will be mainly off road work that the savage will do. Dirt and grass. It is going to probably be a basher so I still want heaps of torque. Here is what i put in:

Vehicle Weight (approx): 15 (I assume this is in pounds, I have no idea what my truck weighs)
Desired top speed in MPH: 40
Differential Ratio: 3.3076923076923075
Transmission Ratio: 1.6956521739130435
Additional Ratio: 0.967741935483871
Spur Tooth Count: 47
Pinion Tooth Count: 16
Battery Voltage: 22.2
Tire Diameter (inches): 6
Total Ratio: 15.94407 : 1
Tire Circumference: 18.85 inches (478.779 mm)
Required Motor RPM: 35729.102 RPM
Required Motor KV: 1609.419 RPM/V
Good Motor Choices: BK Wanderer 12 XL (kv=1390) BK Wanderer 11 XL (kv=1516) BK Wanderer 10 XL (kv=1668)
Better Motor Choices: No motors of this class fit the parameters you entered.
Best Motor Choices: Neu 1515 2.5d (kv=1700) Neu 1515 1.5y (kv=1500) Neu 1512 3d (kv=1700) Neu 1512 2y (kv=1400) LMT 1940/10 (kv=1588) LMT 1940/9 (kv=1742) LMT 1950/9 (kv=1452) LMT 1950/8 (kv=1634)

I'd love to get a neu motor in the future but for the momment I'm going to stick to feiago's. If I try to get a neu now this truck will never be finished. I have almost enough parts to build the chassis now, so pics should be coming soon. Just waiting on a couple of bits.
