RE: wich st?

For racing you will want a Losi XXX-NT or an Associated RC10GT.

RE: Help me ID this engine model

It appears to be an O.S. CV .15 (the blue cooling head designates it as .15 anyway)

Welcome to the forum & welcome to the hobby!

If you are only on your third tank of fuel, then you are still in the process of breaking in the engine.
