I don't know mych about onroads, since i have no intrest in buying one. I just knew about the 4tec, and thought that 70 was pretty fast for a RTR.

thats not the fastest.. its also one of the worst onroads you can buy.

Probably a nitro 4tec, but you really don't want, or can go that fast with out a huge area.

i think they just guess at te speed incrementally, there are no numbers on the box like 37+ mph its always rounded to a 5 or 10 and i think they use the specs and looks of the car to judge speed, <div>onroad +</div><div>3.3+</div><div>= 70mph</div><div>
</div>

Because of aerodynamics and driveline friction you'd have to gear it 10mph faster that the speed you want unless you're at slower speeds and geared more conservatively. My Rustler running on 3s with a Castle Sidewinder+4600kv hits 55mph using my phone GPS app but it's geared from 60mph. It also has Acer ceramic bearings and Bandit body
