I think a 2400 KV motor on 6 cells might be pretty quick!

Here's a little tool to help with calculating top speed. Made by a friend of mine, and speed addict, Nick Maslowski.

http://scriptasylum.com/rc_speed/_speed_amp.html

It helps figure out if your battery can put the amps out to get you to speed.

Try to kinda make the rig fit the body you are using.

This is a top speed contest, not a drag race. However long you can maintain control of it to get your highest speed.

I am shooting for 90mph in the rockcrawler class...

If anyone needs a speed calculater to help figure overall speed, gearing, tire size, roll out.... just about all the basics this is a hard one to beat

Might come in handy, it does for me!
