Default Which burshless ESC and motor to get?

We run a 19 turn brushed stadium truck class at our local track. The club has been allowing an equivalent brushless motor to run in the class also. I’ve been running a brushed motor and it seems like the brushless motor have a slight advantage over those of us who run brushed.
I’m thinking about stepping up to a brushless system and wanted to get some input on what to get. I like the Mamba Max ESC but they don’t really have a motor that is equivalent to a 19 turn brushed motor. One of the faster racers in the area uses an LRP Sphere Competition LRP80700 ESC and a Novak SS 10.5 motor. So that I can get more confused on what to get I would like to hear more on what to get.

I would go sensored because its alot smoother and theres alot less cogging involved. IMO I would get a VXL-3s ESC and a Novak 10.5 motor. I picked the VXL because its made by traxxas and dont underestimate the power of thr VXL because it utterly insane compared to the MM esc.
