get some big spur gears and small pinion gears to increase top speed but decrease acceleration. About what speed does it do now and what teeth gears do u use? I can help u out with more info.

You should probably first start by simply increasing your tyre size. Another option is a better gear ratio that will give you more top end but for this you'll need an engine that can pull those kind of ratios and proper tuning. You can try this link for info on ratios http://www.radiocontrolzone.com/cars/fastmath.asp or this one on some people that did go for a top speed record http://www.rccaraction.com/rc/articles/need_speed.asp

get it down in weight as much as possible. run like 33% nitro in it, over gear it, and YES YES YEEESSS!! GET BIGGER TIRES! easiest way to gear your truck for better speeds.

go with 19 and 23tooth pinions and 43 and 39 spur gears and then get the 18ss hd diffs(like 12bucks each end) which also makes the over all gear ratios lower. try and get a 18TZ which is 2.3hp there plus try and stick super nitro wheels on it
