Default Rc18t project

Now that my mini-t is complete, well before my brother shorted my battery, Im starting a RC18-T project that will be used for the track and not just bashing around.
I just sent payment for a roller on rcu( one great deal in my opinion) so it should be here next week. Im gonna go all out on this car an try not to skimp out on anything. Heres what im working with so far.
-Tek18 Carbong fiber chassis conversion
-lunsford Ti turnbuckle set
-MIP diffs
-MIP CVD's
-Alloy shocks
-Ceramic bearings throughout
-JR DS285MG servo
-2 Elite 1500 saddle packs

I also just ordered a new buggy body for it.

This car will be A non-lipo brushed car set-up since thats what almost everyone runs at our track.
If anyone has any suggestions for Esc( should have reverse function) or a motor let me know.
heres one pic for now from the seller.

You could go with either a Sidewinder or a Micro Pro. Both can run brushed or brushless.

You could find a Tekin B1R or a Novak Spy for cheap...I've used both of those brushed esc's and liked them immensely.

Like I said over at infernal, that Tek18 conversion is the sweetest most balanced rc18 chassis you'll evere own. I'll remember tomorrow to post my li-po connection for the saddle packs you'll need to build for this bad boy.

I believe ill be going with the novak spy, i read that the mamba can tend to have some problems when running brushed motors.
Also i believe the mini-t will be going up for sale since ill have no need for it now and just driving another guys almost stock rc18 i like it much butter on the track.
ill be keeping the mamba system to throw in the rc18 for some fun times.
what do you think of this motor Atomic ST-18, the track is not huge and not alot of striaght aways so i dont need anything that will give me real high speeds but more quick burst of speeds especially as im learning to drive.
