Which is fast enough for me :)

What motor are you using Chris? Stock baja pinion is 18t correct?

Seems like the Kershaw setup would help if you planned to run something like the 2200kv 1515 in pairs and needed to gear it down to realistic speeds that would not overload the motors...

Otherwise 1 big motor and a slightly smaller pinion look to be the easy choice. I still like the dual 1717 setup, if only for the fact it uses well tested components. In a year once the CC XL setup is procen and a bit cheaper it will be the bees knees.
