Get a Picco, Star, or Ninja motor. Most likely your best bet is a .15 or .18

It doesnt make a huge difference what size..

Car(s):
sold the rs4 mini - bought xbox 360 (how stupid)

Currently looking to sell my 360 + a few games and steering wheel for a new rc

Nope, the bigger, the better
I read an article something about the engine in the magazine "RC Car Action", and it said that the bigger, the better, more power, more torge...

more power doesnt mean its better... Unless you are not racing bigger will suck because it will never go full speed. 15's are cheaper, and you can drive it around corners without spinning out....
