If you want absolutely a tekin combo, take the truggy motor instead. Note that tekin truggy motors are little less powerfull than the Castle too...
the mbx5 races great with electric motor ;)

Are you kidding? I'd have to say that the Tekin 1900 is THE BEST motor for racing w/ 4s in a Buggy. I've been using it for almost a year now with ZERO issues. It does not heat up the esc enough to ever turn on the fan, I get easily get by with a 4000 mAh pack in races where others can't even finish with 5,000 mAh. Temps are usually between 100 and 125F and have never reached 140 with 4s. In comparison, my the min temp on my 2650 is about 140F.
