in need some advise in a new esc for my wk. I mashed the stock one.... long story. im plaining putting 16-12 tooth pinion and a 96-90 tooth spur. Now i dont plan on doin rock crawing cuz theres no rock were im at. mostly climing dirt hills and such ( bashing?). Should i get anuther stock esc, or is there a nuther esc from anuther truck that would help in the tourqe department?

getting an esc will not help out your torque but a new motor or bigger batts will. but as for a new esc i would get a traxxas xl-5 esc. you can get them cheap used and they are awsome esc's. -Wes

U might even try the XL-10 with a 8-cell battire. I did this in a rustler with a sting 540 motor and it was great! So on a WK it would also be pretty cool.
