2 dc9360 for 10s2p a123 @$200-250
use the steel gear upgrade for the trans and savage arms. i think that would kill any 5b ever modded or produced. who cares about the slow startup this esc has with this much power on hand.

Just a little over kill don't you think?

It's all about power to weight ratio. a stock baja is ~21lbs. Mine will end up around 15lbs rtr. 10 a123 cells can put out a peak of around 2.5KW. I'm running 12. Othello has eagletree graphs that show the power output on 10s1p.
