Is this for racing or bashing?? If racing, I wouldn't go with either of them for a buggy. If bashing, I would go with the 2200kv. It's a little more efficient than the 2650 and will get you more run time. Both motors are blazing fast.

currently im bashing, i want to race when i feel i have enough control i wont look like a dork on the track.. what would you recomend for racing, and why?

Lower KV rated motors are easier to control. Ran the 2200, lap times sucked. Ran a Tekin 1700 for a while and it lacked the "punch" I was looking for (on four cells...racing, remember) and have settled on the tekin 1900kv. Controllable, punchy, and plenty of speed at controllable temps. consistenty better lap times.
