Well, from what I've heard, the spinbrush motor is so powerful, that with the blue gears, it will still spin the tires off your Xmod, it's that powerful. Also, with a 5-cell mod and the regular NiMH batts, it will have the same top speed as the blue motor and gears in Stage 2, and with a ****load of torque, @ 6 volts. So, I'm guessing that if you upped it to the 6-cell mod, that would be 7.2 volts, so....let's see.....umm....(do this...and.....carry that.....and......umm.....) you'd probably be 20% faster than the stage 2 motor with blue gears....which would be an estimated top speed of 25 mph.....hmmm.....Well, go for it! What are you waiting for?

P.S. *Secret tip* if you use 6 IC-3 batts in there, which will be 8.7 volts, then your car may go up to around 30 mph!!!!
(with the spinbrush motor and the blue gear, of course )
