How fast does a TC3 go with a 13T motor

Hey, I was just wondering. I have a TC3 running a 13 turn motor with 23 tooth pinion. With a 19 Turn the TC3 goes about 20 mph. I seriously doubt mine with a 13 turn is going even 30. Can anyone please give me a estimate on about how fast it goes. Thanks

List of parts in TC3
-TC3 Racer Kit
-Aluminum Driveshaft
-1800 mAh Battery Pack
-Duratrax 12T ESC
-Orion 13x2 Turn Motor
-Futaba Magnum Sport Radio System
-23 tooth pinion gear
-Stock spur gear

Re: How fast does a TC3 go with a 13T motor

Hi, you can increase speed by using different cells. I wonder which cells do you use now? Softer tyres increase traction which your going to need.
Ultimatly would be a brushless motor and a big ESC on hot cells GP2200 would do just fine.

You dont need a Brushless to go fast. You can push 40 by messing with gear ratios, and its the cheapest thing you can do right now. Just make sure the motor doesnt get too hot.

gear ratios meaning using bigger pinoins and different size spur gears and if you want to hit 40 you should run like 3300 gp cells that are good
