i need help

[Stick15]

thanks for your help so far.

i plan on running 8 cells. ive been talking to a friend of mine and he has suggested running a setup such as a Feigao 8S motor withe 8 cells and a Warrior 9918 controller. would this run ok? i just want to make sure i don't blow a load of money on the wrong setup.

the car's stock final drive ratio is 9.71:1, but i want to run 2.2" tyres in the near future...hopefully i'll be able to up the ratio.

Here's a link to the car:

although that's the link to the mt2, my car is the rally version and uses the exact same chassis and everything...but with shorter suspension arms and tyres. and my car has the single speed, so braking shouldn't be a problem.

oh, and i'll be using it for bahing during the week, but i'll be racing it at the weekends. I'd just like to have plenty of torque and a top speed of over 40mph....as fast as possible really!

thanks for all your help!
