Well first off, welcome to the forums! I would suggest an Wanderer XL motor for sure, on 14 cells, a 6 would be required for those speeds, but there goes runtime. Have you ever seen or driven an rc going 55 mph? It's rather hard to control for anybody. I think 45 would be a good possible goal and you would still have decent runtimes. Like I said, For those speeds on that few of cells, a 6XL would probably be get you close but it would run rather hot. If your running Titans, a 8XL would be a HUGE jump. If I were you, thats what I would go for. 8XL and a Quark 125 or a Warrior 9920. As for upgrades, a steel idler, cvd's, and a Strobe slipper would be required. Your diffs would go out pretty quick as well. I would recommend the FLM hybrid bulks if you plan on getting aluminum bulkheads anyway. The hybrids incorperate the bulkheads into the diff cases. It makes for a stronger, lighter combo. The hybrids with Hot Bodies Lightning Stadium diffs would be a good, affordable option. Right here is your best bet for parts. If Mike doesn't have it in the store, chances are he has it or can get it.
