Default what gearing?

I have a hh 13t torquemaster with a 22t pinion running 3s and burnt the motor up in a 30 minute session. I want this rig to run mostly high speed with occasional crawling. so my question would be what should I do gearing wise so I can keep speed up and not worry about burning up the motor again.

I'm not familiar with the Vaterra gearing but for mostly high speed you really should think about brushless. John Holmes has a good thread in Electronics and you could ask him directly. He will be able to answer your questions.

High speed go to brushless only. Or Titan 550 brushed motor on budget side.
