Well, its fast- 43mph is the fastest its been clocked at so far with GPS (traxxas forum, with photo evidence). But, it does run hotter than the 6.5motor, and does tend to thermal in anything much heavier than a stock Emaxx (9lbs). If the converted savage is much heavier than that I would say its not the best option, since the need to gear down alot will kill your top end rather baddly- 30:1 reduction ratio for 14 cell operation....
