I doubt it's 20mph. Mine only goes about 16 or 17. Yes 3mph does matter when things are this small.

i just did the math and if these motors are spinning at 30,000 rpms

the drag motor your using should top out at 18 mph and the top speed motor should top out at 24 miles per hour. now i'm going to assume that there is some drag so a few miles per hour will put it around 20. maybe higher or a bit lower. another thing the energizers make my car go faster than my radio shack rechargeables so that could be it too

Doesn't the speed also depend on what throttle your controller is set too? Hi or Lo.

I have both energizer rechargables and the rs rechargables. When i use energizer rechargables the car feels lighter when i drive but my runtime is very short compared to the rs rechargables. Rs rechargables give me about an hour of runtime going at full speed.

I wasn't using the drag motor when I estimated the speed. This was with the stage 2 blue motor.
