Check these out, they are abit over your price range, but both models are great.
I installed some of the standards this week, as well as a Draked version in my own.
Power is unbelievable, plenty of power. Responds well to tunes for different tracks, really a racers engine.

Hope this helps.

Depends on the track. What kind of track is it? High grip/low grip, smooth/rough, long/short, fast/technical. Let me know and I'll suggest something, as if you get the wrong motor for the track, you really wasted your money.

Check out the STS motors, they are supposed to be very fast and good quality engines and they are dirt cheap!

Stick to the named brand like Novarossi, Pico, RB.... dont bother with Go and STS. ITs better to spend the extra $20

Go with a STS engine if your on a tight budget. They have a wide variety of 21's for good prices: http://www.stsmicroengines.com/
