speed doesnt matter in drifting its all about control and accleration, like you could have a 300bhp ae87 beat a 600skyline in drifting because the skyline is massive overpowered, which is the same in rc, my mate beat a hpi r40 by 1 lap with his 19spec powered schumacher axis 2 so in theory you dont actually need straight line speed

SenSei, you're running a 9 turn on stock gearing?!?! Why? You're gonna destroy that motor so quickly. And from what equipment you have on your car right now, you could've easily bought a much better car. TT-01's are great cars for budget minded beginners, but they'll end up making you want more.

pyrodon, if you can save up the money, skip the TT-01. Go for a TC3, TC4, Sprint, TB-01, TB-02, or TA-04.

i agree with u 100% man, i know that now, but i bought that car and had it stock for a while, but then i got the stuff to make it go fast, but now i realise i should have got a better chassis, and why will i destroy the motor ?

well if you chose the right spur pinion combo you might add some speed

your motor gets that hot because your on the Stock gearing.. and all that heat is what damages your motor, gear it properly and your heat issue will go away, beacuse only 55kmph with a 9 turn motor is not good... i get 60kmph my my 13x2 geared 19/87 in my Losi xxx-s. if you gear your car right you couild be going alot faster.

Gearing: you should drop a tooth on your pinion for every turn on your motor that you go down,i went from a 19t to a 13x2 so my gearing went from 25/97 to 19/87 hope this helps.
