I agree for racing 1600-2000 is the max kv you want with a 5s+ system, if you are running 4s 2200-2700 is fine depending on your gearing and speed needs.. higher kv = more speed, lower kv = more run time. To be honest reguardless of the motor I won't gear any race truck for over 42mph anymore, I actually like shooting for about 38mph to be honest.. more than enough top end and leads to slightly longer run times.
