1515/1y on 5s or 6s ?

Brian,
So if I gear for 45mph (40/17) will that be too speed geared for bashing and overheat? Also would 6s be so much I could hardly control it ? I do want it to be reasonably driveable...not too inasne ....I am on 4s now ....would you reccomend 5s or 6s ? Thanks

You will not have any heat problems geared for 45. You will plenty of power at any speed and then some. 6s with the same gearing is going to be nuts. I can't see it being usable unless you have some wide open space to run.
