Gear it up. 22T bell, 70T spur.
I think they will work on the Sport. Check the options list in your manual or the Traxxas site to make sure.
I have this setup on my Rustler with a regular O.S. .12CV and the top speed is quite satisfying (for a stadium rig). A stronger engine will only improve your accelleration, if the gear ratio isn't changed.

Rims
APC stickers
StreetGlow
Type R floormats and seat covers


Seriously.. 50+ with the 2.5 on a sport? Your take-off has got to be pretty sluggish.

Here's what I would do.. OS .18 CV-R with a re-gear

No way, there is no way your NS can wheelie and do 50mph, how are you measuring your speed?
