Guess I don't know what I'm talking about though, I'll keep my setups to myself....thank you and goodnight.
sorry bud, i didnt mean to be rude...

But i just wanted to highlight that such an undergeared setup would cause your motor to over heat. As i mentioned, my motor was reaching high temperatures when i geared my 1520 for 35mph (i wanted to see what the torque would be like) after a few temp recordings... my ESC and lipos were still COLD and the motor was hitting 70degrees... i then put the gearing back to 53mph and my temps remained warm across the 3...

But MY GOD when i had the savage geared for 35mph with the 1520... there was so much torque that i did at one point do a standing DOUBLE backflip after warming my tyres up for max traction!!!! (it was a bit of a fluke, but it still happend!)
