You hit 60 with stock gearing?
The most recommended RS4 3 replacement motor here is the OS .18CV-RX, I am currently installing mine and plan on breaking it in this weekend. I'll let you know.

ok sounds kool
do they make new gear systems just yesterday i made it go up a street going up a hill. There was a side walk curve and my motor got out of place and slid a bit. the gears got realy worn down.
"Do they make racing gears?"

i highly, highly doubt that you hit 60mph with that engine, especially with that gearing, maybe 60kmh, you can go faster with the red pinions and the 37/41 spur combo, you dont need a better engine, the os 18cv-rx wont make it faster, just more powerful, it doesnt turn alot of revs, start with gearing
