I have the power racing X8and was considerring the CC 2650 combo , but am unsure as to where to get a single gear conversion and also if a 4S 25c 4000 zippy rhino will be enough to push the car to some decent speeds

heres a link to the battery it's weight looks really good for a 1/8 onroad project. Just not sure if It'll be enough

let me know what you think

I think you will have good speed with that combo of motor and battery. Where were you thinking of mounting the battery? Most 1/8th chassis have a clearance of 30mm between the top and bottom decks (yours maybe different).
Keep us updated with some pics as you progress.

P.S.
For those interested, I took some new video footage of my car last weekend. I have to edit up a clip as I used 2 cameras at the one time.
