Ok, so i like this little mech, just one problem for me... speed... i dont need to go 100+ KPH, but it would be nice to keep up with the heavy mechs at least...

I know i need a bigger engin, but im wondering if anyone has gone about doing this and might share some insight on a build or 2 that might work to make this little trash can go any faster? =D

any help here would be awesome, thank you.

170 and 180 XLs are your friends.

go for the XL180 and play with it theres not a great deal you can do there after.
big ballistics are ok for lols very satisfying when you get a kill but a rare thing indeed when using the std60
i tryd to recreate the death blossom was quite funny but i did die a lot

I run XL125 and 145s in mine so you get up to about 80kph. It leaves enough space to have one heavy long range weapon and a bunch of light weight medium to shorts. I've seen some people run 2-4 mpl builds but I don't like to close distance in my urbie until I'm using MG's to crit internals.
