wanting to race a class at our local onroad, have a ?
 
so we have a nascar class that i have a pan car for and another racer has given me a used tekin 17.5 motor that has a sensor wire, the class allows only a 1s lipo! what is a good cheap speedcontrol that i can run that will work with 1s and a 17.5 tekin and will the motor run with out a sensor wire?

You need a sensor wire. haha If you don't have one I have extras. For 1s you need to look at whether you will need a booster or receiver pack or nothing at all. Some of the LRP's can go with nothing at all. But they have been notorious for their BEC's failing. So the new boards LRP is updating the ESC with is supposed to need a booster or receiver pack. I've seen a few people say their is working fine without a booster? But I dunno how long it will work that way.

I would say run a Tekin RS with a receiver pack. But thats me. I like Tekin ;)

You could go with Hobbywing also. Heard decent things about them. Lots of options really.
