Then you need a 60 amp controller to go with it. Not a 120 or 150 amp controller that will take up your entire chassis space. Btw, the setup I mentioned will be faster, acceleration will be better and you will have more runtime than the other setups mentioned.
The power does not come from the motor nor the controller. It comes from the battery and only the battery. You simply match the motor and the controller to acheive the best electrical to mechanical energy efficieny.

I understand how power is made. I was going to go with Lipos but I constantly have kids around my rcs and I cannot be around to monitor the charging lipos, plus the nimh is more forgiving. Not only that since the vehicle is so light weight that I need the weight to keep the vehicle on the ground. As of right now my motor mount only accepts 540 motors. If i can fab up a motor mount that will take a 400 then I can go with the 1515.
