i still doubt that those open outrunners will do well in real offroad conditions for a longer time.
as for the motor i would look at the 30er series lehners, the big neu or the plettenberg bolido.
as for the esc i would go as big as you can.
i drive large scale models for quite some time now. eventhough i am mostly an electric guy i am still reluctant with converting one of the big cars. those gas engines are not much maintenance and you get great runtimes cool sound etc etc. for me personally it seemed much less necessary to convert those large scalers compared to the nitro 8th scale screamers. however i see that i may be fun seeing a large scale electric and the building itself is sure fun too.

The outrunner conversion has been done and tested before in offroad conditions. As long as you run a dust guard on the back of the outrunner somewere you should be fine for a few runs. Then you'll have to clean it out. And yes I do change my mind quite often.

Im not looking to spend $500 on a motor. I am just looking for a basic setup... Hey guys I just had another idea. You think a KB45 17xl on 8s would do? If I recall its 700kv. So 700kv x 29.6v nominal = 20720 max kv.
