Using a motor that will only give 10-15mph at wot would be much more efficient. I would agree though, this sounds more like a 35-55turn lathe motor or two would be best- cool temps, ample torque and 1-2 hour runtimes on a pair of big lipos....
This set up is going to be purely for hiking jogging speed.

I will have a brushless revo for all round bashing when it comes out.

I would like to set this up for about 10 - 15 MPH Max with the most possible run time and best realibility.

So what motors and pinion would you guys suggest?

by the way, I dont really have the EVX and the titans any more, sold them on ebay.
