Thanks, exactly the kind of info I was looking for.

With the stock Titans it will flip on it's lid from a standstill...plenty of power for my purposes.

Do you think a 9L or 8L would be sufficient in torque and not have a heat issue if I gear it down...not for top end speed. Speaking of that, what gearing should I go for....12/72?...and what is a good source for 5mm pinions?

By the way, my E-Maxx is pretty close to bone stock...except for wider offset wheels which really cut down on rollovers. The biggest bummer for me and the kids is swapping out batteries every 10 minutes...if they last that long. Would love it if I could see 20-30 minute runtimes. Which 3S batteries have you had the most success with? Have you ran a pair in parallel for extended runtimes?
