Are you talking about more speed during a race? If your racing and wan't to stay in the stock class, you'll want to upgrade the ESC and batteries. If you just wan't to go faster (and not stay in the stock class), buy a 15 turn modified motor, which will stay in your ESC's limit.

a full bearing set is a must buy for more speed and run time...

your old stock motor has seen better days i'm sure.... pick up a new P-2-k or GM-3 and i'm sure you will see an increase in speed.... (gear around 21/81 from the P-2-k or 20/81 with a GM-3)

or.... you can go the cheap fast way.... pick up a 17 turn speed gem.... :)

peace out... :)

the GM-3 will turn around 28-30k rpm..... i really don't remember how many rpm's the 17t speed gem turns....

which is better?? the speed gem for sure if you ever plan on running your rc in reverse (because it comes with no advanced timing)...

otherwise, the 17 may have a bit more power than the GM-3.. but not by much...

both are good motors for sure...

peace out... :)
