Fastest acceleration Ive ever seen.



Seriously though. The fastest setup I have ever run in my 1/8 buggy was a Lehner 1930/10 on 5s (4350mah 25C) with a MM controller. The smaller motor seems to spool up really fast and give some killer acceleration. I had it geared to the moon and the top end was really good too. The thing was absolutely wicked, only problem was the motor got hot after only about 2 minutes of running. But if your just doing a drag race and then shutting down that shouldn't be a problem.

My advice would be to look for a little smaller motor that can spool up faster and spin faster without drawing quite as many amps. 1512 or maybe even the 1509(2400kv) motor mike has listed in the store and run it on 5s. That would probably be much faster acceleration.
