I read on the tower website, that the 2650 should be used for buggy and the 2200 for truggy. I havent bought it yet, just figured i ask before hand. Also wanted to know what type of lipo i should be using. I have heard good things about the zippy's, are turnigy the same quality; cause they are a bit cheaper. Thanks for the replies guys!!
1 more thing on the site the specs for the 2650 are 16.8v max for the motor, and 25v for the esc. Here comes the stupid question, If i use 6s will I fry the motor, or will the esc limit the current to the motor

From the Castle site it says the 2650 is intended for uses with 4s
''Neu-Castle 2650 KV – Intended for 4S (16.8 Volt) operation. Ideal for 1/8th buggy conversions. The 2650 is 68mm long.''

and the 2200 is intended for use with 6s
''Neu-Castle 2200 KV – Intended for up to 6S (25.2 Volt) operation. Incredible in monster trucks with up to 6S lipo packs (4s lipo is the sweet spot), and works great in 1/8 Truggies as well. The 2200 is 75mm long making it capable of handling more power than the 2650. This one is the bad boy!''
OK GOT IT! THANKS FOR THE INFO
