Default Losi 8ight-t setup

Hi, I am looking to get into competitive RC racing. I will be running on two different tracks. One is a pretty standard dirt track and the other will be on pavement running on a tight touring car track. Here is the setup I plan on using:

1. Losi 8ight-T Race Roller (will be torn down and rebuilt immediately)
2. LRP Z .28R spec 3 engine
3. Spectrum DX3R
4. JR Z4800T Coreless Hi-Torque Servos
5. Stock wheels/tires for dirt
6. Proline on-road wheels for street

So, a couple questions:

How will this perform?
What is the approximate top speed?

Default RE: Losi 8ight-t setup

you have diff&shock oils to adjust for handling and that will depend on your driving and speed depending on gearing anywhere from 40-55mph...rock on with your plan!!

TY, I plan on ordering all of the shocks and I will change out my diff oil all the time. I'm a chronic maintenance freak.
