If this doesn't need to be ready until the spring, you should look into the Castle-Neu motors that Castle will soon be releasing. They are re-designed copies of neu motors, except they are more suited for cars. They are sealed, have a bigger front bearing, don't have stiff wires coming out of the back end, and will save you almost $100 over a regular neu motor. The 1515 1Y will be the most versatile as it will run great in both buggies and truggies. You can use 4s, 5s, and 6s packs with 4s being a good racing setup and 6s being totally insane.
