I would suggest getting a brushless. I run the Mamba Max 5300, it works great (I geared it down to the minimum pinion). Brushless is more expensive, but it ends up saving you money in the long run because the motors are sealed and the power is excellent. I'd look at the Mamba or the Traxxas VLX. Good Luck...

if you want to go in water brushed motors rule. but brushless is great for speed and general rock crawling! Maybe a Mamba Monster!

going brushless is a good idea. i would suggest the sidewinder system, it works great. or if u don't want to go brushless get a modded motor, those work good too!
