6s might be to much

The stock slipper sucks - I tried it twice. Even when I accelerated slowly and change my gear size it still burned up. Thats twice in two runs.

Anyway I will probably order the strobe slipper kit. But since there not in stock I did some research and found a Robinson Racing slipper kit. All metal and has holes in it for cooling like a disc brake. Not sure if it will fit on the emaxx tranny. Also, I believe it is a 32pitch spur so I order RR pinions to match. Hopefully I did it right and won't have a problem with installation or running it.

I also checked the car on the speed gun and reached 57mph using 52spur and 18 pinion. My goal was 60 and I think I will achieve it once I use the all metal slipper.

I'll keep everyone posted on when I crack the 60mph mark.

You need to get the plastic spurs....The metal on metal will shred the pinions...Did you get my PM?

Well I tried it again and I melted the spur gear a second time. Top speed using a 52/16 was 57mph and I plan on breaking 60 before I'm done. Mike is still out of the strobe slipper so I searched the web and found Robinson Racing. They make a 32pitch 54spur and 14-22pinion gears with an all metal cross drilled slipper. I'll try this configuration on Wednesday when I get it in the mail and tell you all how it works. I will start with a 14pinion then 16 - 18 - 20 and finally if the E-Revo can handle it a 22.

Well what do you guys think about my idea of using the RR slipper as a substitue?

also, what does everybody think about the RR slipper with the plastic spur instead of steal?
