Even with a 20t pinion you are only geared for 39mph... and from my findinigs is that what ever the speed calculator results in, you should take off 10mph for actual speed....
I am geared for 53mph and i hit 43mph actual speed.
When running my 1520 with flux tranny... i ran the 39t high speed idler and ran an 18 t-19t pinion for around a 50-55mph calculated top speed so more like 40-45mph and i ran extremely kl temperatures... When geared for around 40mph my motor temps were very hot and my esc and lipos were extremely cool.

Sorry, don't know what to say. Correction though on the pinion/spur. 47/19, and the truck was fast enough, uncontrollable at top speed with the stock tires, and fun enough for me with cool temps all around.
Guess I don't know what I'm talking about though, I'll keep my setups to myself....thank you and goodnight.
