What motor and esc do you recommend? I want it to be brushless
any of the 1410 sized motor meant for the mini-z will fit like the surpass hobbies Rocket line up like the 5500 on 2s will get you to around 50 mph.. . for a 2s esc this 18a unit off amazon has been working very nice , but you have to extend the motor leads.. https://www.amazon.com/RiToEasyspor...8a+esc&qid=1679505482&sprefix=,aps,188&sr=8-5 for battery I have been running the 7.2 2s batteries meant for the WL toys line of cars so they are cheap
https://www.amazon.com/7-4V-450mAh-...qid=1679505569&sprefix=2s+450,aps,119&sr=8-29

Should I try one of them in it?
He has a build video. I haven't watched it yet, but maybe he tells what brushless motor he runs there.

Lol, there ya go.

Wow. I may have to print my boy and I a set. Not sure my parking lot outside is ok for them though. It's concrete, with divisions every 12' or so, and some are a bit bumpy. I started on a 1/16 scale drag truck a few years ago, but was wanting a better power plant for it than what I could find at the time. But with Furitek having so much cool stuff out now, I think I'll revisit that project.
 
Finally got my 1st street bashing in this season. 🥳
Son had track practice at the local college....which means tons of big open parking lots. Took Taz out and had a blast!! Need to raise the front some as the tires are rubbin' the inside of the wheel well on turns. Other than that it was a great 30 min run time!! 82°, but cool breeze, cloud cover and it being evening, it was perfect weather. 😁

Had a blast shakin' the cobwebs off of the Terps Typhon tonight. Found a nice little area at a local college where my son has his track practice, to run some mini-speedruns and bash around. It's geared for bashing, so the speed runs are just for kicks, part of the bashin'. Gotta bring my GPS next time.

Feels great RCin' again! 79°-beautiful out. Got a good 25 mins out of it. Motor/esc temps didn't get hotter than 150°. It was a good evening! 🤗

Now if I can just find the time to finish gettin' my track ready!!! 🙄 😁

A bit of both, but, both of my Slashes are monsters. The top pic is my 2WD, and the bottom pic is my 4WD:

The 4WD still has the Fiesta front bumper, and a Slash rear bumper, and Hoss Sledgehammer's, so it's still a mix of parts.
