Status: online 		you'll want to put bearings in it, you may want to put on oil shocks too.

I am running one with a sidewinder esc, a vxl motor, and stock pinion. Runs cool. I have a hornet sized pinion ordered, but I don't think I'll put it in for a while. My kids drives this and 35 mph might be too much for him (he's 5).

I clocked it at 22mph with the above setup. That may not sound fast, but in a lunchbox with its limited handling, that's plenty for us.

I have a Novak XBR 8.5 system in mine. Cheap and fast, works great!
