Run times and speed

[roadrash909]

hey im thinking about getting the new XXXT Matt Francis edition and i'd like to know some stuff(im new at this, can u tell?) well what kind or run times and speeds do u think i would get with say a 2400 pack and a 15t motor (or with any other setups you suggest :D )???

that truck is a great truck! And runtime wise, if your gearing is proper, i would say around 7 minutes depending on what kind of 2400. And speed wise im not sure, my t3 with a d4 15t goes about 35mph. If your going to race, you might want to start out in stock class till u improve your driving. Good luck

You could probably get 5-6 minutes of run time and maybe a top speed of 30 mph if you have the motor broken in well. I get about 27 mph with a speed gem 16T Triple in my T3 and about those run times. The trucks are pertty close.

thanks a lot for the input!-
and Phish, what do u think would be a good gearing setup knowing that i probably wont be doing much racing (at least not at first) but i would still like to get a good performance out of the truck?

15T moified, I believe Stern told me too use a 21 pinion and 84 spur. Sterns the man, id wait to see if he replies but i believe thats what he said, I use a 17t pinion and an 87 spur and i find it works well.

does the XXXT MF come with a pinion and a spur?

Firstly, Team Losi does spurs in ONLY even #'s, the truck comes with the 88 tooth spur, and no, the kit does not come with a pinion, you need to get one(3 bucks, no skin off anyone's be-hind)
