Default How much power?

How much power can a stock cc-01 Chassis take? I am running a mamba max pro esc. a 3s 2100 lipo battery, and a 55 turn motor.
Its a good ballance between crawling and speed. But i dont want to destroy the thing. I want a little more speed out of it. Im willing to sacrifice a little crawlability for some sandability.
I would appreciate any and all input, good or bad!


Thanks,
bikeman

It seems that it can handle a suprising amount. If you're going for wheelspeed only, I've had mine hold up to stadium truck style bashing- 15-18mph jumping, flipping, etc. I keep the front diff unlocked during high speed stuff to lower the shock to the driveline. The main thing I would be concerned about messing up with a ton of power would be the gearbox cover warping a bit- make sure it's cinched down very well (likely using long locked screws) to prevent any gear skipping. Once gear skipping starts it'll get very bad very quickly!
