What do you want to spend? Are you racing? If so is it a long or short track?
There are a LOT of engines out there and we'll need more info if you want us to help.

In which case you want a fast budget engine.
Look at some of these
Hyper 8 port
SH .21 (SH also make Nosram, LRP or sportwerks)
STS .21 B/E
Thunder tiger .21 pro

There is also the OS .21 VG but i'm still not convinced about it yet.

All are faster than your average RTR engine and will be fine for club racing, but not so expensive that you wouldn't want to bash it.
All can be had in pull start or non pull start. They're all quite cheap too (can be had for about $150 US or £75 GBP)

Fast, the rb c6t7 or werks team line b7. Get the werks 2013 pipe for either of the 2 engines. The werks 21 team line B7 engine was voted fastest last year in the pro series final in Rockford Illinois.
