I think the 1717 is a good choice as well because it can probably take close to a 1:1 ratio on the pinion/spur, with the GRP tires being so light it will run fine. Probably giving you more attempts at 100+ before it heats up too much as well. Just gotta run some extra voltage... The GRPs are just great for the speed runs too!

Thanks!

That's good to know about the GRP's, and yes I should be able to gear this motor to the moon :P
As it stands I'm looking at a 36T 'spur', but my pinion is a 30T, and 30/36 only allows for 99mph top speed on 6S, which is not what i'm after.
my only choice is to get a larger pinion made £25 :( , and have a smaller spur made, so I can run around 34/32 or higher. That gives 126mph calculated top speed, which is more what I'm after. It's just annoying having to spend £50 on just two gears!

Thanks :D
100mph should be achievable with a 1515, after theres that 91mph E-Revo, an he was running a 1515 (2700kv version), so the 2200kv should manage just fine.

NOT COOL AT ALL!!!!! All the parts look like a knock off of Mike's. They even call it by the same name.

That is a shame, Chinese are copying EVERYTHING these days
