Have a T maxx 2.5 with a 72T steel spur gear, 20T bell, Traxxas resonator pipe, Hi-Tech servo, and Futuba transmitter. This truck is like a screaming banshee but wont stand up. Not really worried about speed or even losing some just want some low end power. truck is tuned up nice and i have tried some other things that were suggested in my previous thread but still dont have that wheelie standing power. ANY SUGGESTIONS (new engine?)
 
Get a lower tooth'd spur gear or clutch bell or just tune it. I have basically the same setup as yours and i can get mine to pop wheelies whenever its tunes right. Just get the lsn tuned right.
 
Lower tooth bell to an 18T and soften the rear shocks up a bit. It allows the rear to go under the COG easier causing the front to be pushed up. Do you have the FOC in it? If not, install one. Will make your off the line starts much more smooth and reduce a decent amount of junk in your trans plus the extra servo.
