Yea just the stock 3.3 is quite fast. Change the gearing and get a different pipe unless it already has one. 30% nitro would help a little....

Its a roll of the dice! Some people have great luck with them, others such as myself not so good. I personally have broke 2 3.3 engines. 1 in my revo (the crank pin) and 1 in my maxx.(split the connecting rod) check out my pic on the sleeper max thread. Iwent with the picco 26jl red dot and havent looked back.
