Medusa 70mm enough for 11lb truggy? -

Hey guys. I'm thinking about buying a 70mm medusa from Mike tomorrow for my truggy. It will be the 36-70-1600. I am running 6s lipos with 13/52 gearing. Let me know your thoughts.
Anyway, what truggy would that be weighing 11 lbs?
Castle Neu 1520 on 6S LiPo Powered Gmaxx (Nitro Killer)
Predator with OS .21TM
Supermaxx with Mach .26
Revo with OS .18TZ
Kyosho ST-RR Conversion
Ofna CR with Tekin ESC/Motor (2)
I run a 36-80 in my 10 pound Maxx on just 4S and it moves it around like it only weighs 1 pound. Except that torque comes with a price.... a smooth spur gear....
Ok, I will go with a 70mm. I can either get the 2200kv one for 4s or the 1600kv for 6s. What do you think? My 4s pack is 3300mah 25c FP and the 6s pack is 4900mah 25c neu.
dont want to jack your thread but was planning on the exact same motor for 6s in my heavy ~12-13 pound maxx and would like to know thoughts about it as well... Thanks
Maxx - FLM, MMM, CD Med.36x706s
Raja - FLM Ext. MM, 1512, 4s
SC8ight - MMM, 1520, 6s
D8T - MMM 1717 6s

1600kv. Those 4s lipos are too small for a 70mm in a 11+ lb truck.
