Default Help choosing an ESC for my evader

I'm set up for li-po, and it's what I plan to run in the car(I was running 3s successfully for over a month beating the snot out of it to until I got the blasted ESC wet). I need an ESC that can handle the LI-po(it does not have to have a low voltage shield, I have a CC external one that I can use like I have been).

Basically I need something inexpensive that can stand up to an 11.1v 3s pack. I'm running a stock LOSI motor(I don't remember the gearing I'd have to look again) on an Evader BX. I thought about a brushless system, even one of the offbranded 65$ ones from ebay, but I just don't want the car any faster. I've already had to mod it for drive hexes and put some significantly grippier and larger tires on it to get it to stay hooked up with the 3s pack, I'm good!

can anyone give me a quick recommendation on an ESC? I really enjoyed running this car and am bummed it's not functional.
