I'm running a tekin rsx esc and roc 412 2300kv motor. Geared at 56/16

[monkeyracing]

So far this week:

2s and 3s lipos, 32p gears, spur is 54T

6 turn, 950kv aircraft brushless outrunner with cheap ESC 19T pinion(coggy, crappy)
Stock 27t brushed on Tekin FXR, 13 and 19T pinion (good, but hate that fan noise)
27t Mabuchi Silver can on FXR 13T pinion (good, but motor was previously cooked from a career in racing)
Low Bucks Racing 55T on FXR 13T and 19T pinion (SLOW, incredible battery life)
20T Mabuchi from a Swiffer Sweep n Vac on FXR 11T pinion (FAST, smells like it's going to catch fire just because)

[T4rscott]

2s lipo, atomic 35t motor, AE5 ESC, Trepador tires and 56t spur and 9t pinion.
