2S is actually better with the VXL system if you want things to stay cool. To get a little more speed, you would need to bump up the pinion a couple of teeth from stock though. On 2S, it's geared for right around 30mph out of the box.

It will run on 3S, but don't expect it to stay cool since it's pushing a 4WD vehicle at 45+ mph.

that is understandable. A freind has a rustler vxl and it came with a 3s batt. sure it was STUPID fast and had ridiculous power but it didnt stay as cool as mine.. i popped a 2s battery on it and it was still hella fast but now had better handling cause it didnt wheelie whenever you touched the throttle, plus there were no temp issues.
