That looks like a nice combo on Tekno's site. Not too shabby but a nice chunk of change!

As for the speed issue: Make your truck as light as possible! Try to put in a single speed center diff or getting a single gear conversion for your Revo tranny. Get some lighter meats too, those wheels and tires are rotating force, if you want good speed, get some nice wheels (Velos are pretty light) and some nice offroad tires meant for racing. Some Mulchers, Sportraxx tires, Bowties, etc. Search for different weights. I know the UE guys are VERY strict on their wheel/tire combos, they should be able to throw you some figures. You can also try narrowing your wheels, which takes off weight and makes for better traction.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure the pink E-Revo does about 30-35 MPH on 12 3000 Venom NiMh cells and the Hacker C50 Maxx system. I figure once I add a Lipo and a 18T or 19T pinion (17/66 now) then it will be even better. You should be able to hit 40mph if you don't just rely on the powertrain.


:D
