your best bet is a mamba monster max esc ($150) and then a feigao 8xl ($70). Then gear it for a bout 35mph. (that t-maxx aint gonna go much faster than that. Then replace things as they break(drivetrain).

Really save your money for a set of lipos. It feels like you double your power when going from 12/14 cell nimh to 4s lipo. its unbelievable.
