That's exactly what I would do if I were to build another one.

Just my .02 cents.
I'm running a mugen MBX6T but this is almost EXACTLY the same setup I'm running. I'm using a RX8/1700kv truggy motor, 5s 35c LiPo, geared 16/46. I just picked up Mike's delrin 50T spur for the slipperential so I'll be running either 16 or 17/50 depending on track size.

I had zero issue with torque with the 16/46 setup actually. Plenty available all the time (no current limit, Zero timing on the motor)...
