does anyone know the exact speed for a nitro rustler with a 3.3 in it

My nitro sport with my 2.5 conversion does a good 50. Was catching up to cars on my rd and speed is 45. Its very hard to keep it controlled. Its too light. LOL

i noticed that lol it pull the front tires off the ground at roughly 40 mph.

I got a 3.3 in mine and had to legthen and widen it to get it under control, handles pretty good now though.

I think i'm going to move the battery box to the front. That should help in keeping it down. I hope lol.

yea i tried to move the battery box to the front of the rustler but it changes the handeling big time and when ur in dirt i tends to spin the tires alot easier.

I think the weight has to be in the center or even in the back and the front. Me and a friend were playing the other day and we put 2 attic pull down staircase springs on it. We had 1 in the front at 1st and it did sick doughnuts but no traction. Then we put 1 in the back also. Center of gravity was too high then lol. Ill have to get some stick on weights or something.

if you want an offroad ratio with the 3.3 on a 2.5 rustler for speed and offroad which will push about 55 if tuned right got 72/22 or for just straight street speen go 55/20 or 22, or a 68/18, 20 or 22
