Hmmm.. well since the Revo is so light, you wont need something too powerfull. I'd say a Sirio .23 or a OS .18 TM.

.18 tm will be more than enough power... it should help you keep up with the low end grunt of the BB drivers.

How would you fit the 18tz as it has a rotary carb.The best i think is the 18tm as the rb cocepts tm323 adds to much weight

For racing, the OS 18tm/tz would be the best choice. Many places put over .18 engines in a different class than .18 and under. (Unlimited class) which includes truggies. Also, the powerband of the OS 18tm/tz is better for a dirt track. I had a hard time at the track with mine, but... I learned how to feather the throttle.

Like a previous poster said, over 70% of the races even here in ghettosota (minnesota) have separate classes. Both Big Block and Small Block classes. I guess its up to you... what class do you want to run?
