Even on a 2s set up she manages to do a fair amount of damage.....i keep a spare crt.5 just for parts for her.
The GR Revo is my second choice except I would do a true CD set up.
Good luck!

Like i said i know the 8T will handle it, I beat one all to H#!! running nitro. I raced an O.S. .21 v-spec against .30's and rarely lost.
I disagree with your opinion on the CRT.5, One i had in nitro was a tank, every bit as tough as the 8T, Actually made the 1/8 truggies nervous when i threatened to enter it. Oh! i was running a 5 port o.s .12 tr in it, insane little truck. It is possible converting to brushless might show some weaknesses

Like said earlier figured the 8T might get a few more votes. The reason for running the 2250 in this setup, it should run lower amps. This motor was designed for pushing big boats and possibly 1/5 scale cars, should barely know the 8T/Revo is even there at 4-5s lipo's.
thanks for the input, the 8T will possibly be cheaper to build, only need the motor mount and battery box
