Default rc18t dirt oval brushless

Running a fairly small dirt oval with some local racers. What is a good mild brushless that I could go with. Not needing a speed machine, trying to keep everyone on a level playing field. Located a 3200kv inrunner motor, and also been Eyeing some smaller helicopter motors, but didn't know if they would work for my situation. The stock 370 brushed motors just aren't lasting long enough. Any Ideas please post. Thanks.

I'm currently running the Mamba 25/6800kv combo in a LOSI latemodel on a 190' oval... it is bad-fast! (Faster than my 19t 10th scale truck! Right now it is limited by the handling, but that is improving. OPEN Mod 4wd 10th scale late model track record is 57 laps, most of the time 52-53 is what they run, and I'm already close to their level (I ran 52 with the Mamba to win the Mod 18th scale A-main last week)...

That translates to a 6800 maybe being too much motor for a "small" dirt oval...?

Due to the fact of having a hard time moving them, Castle Creations has been having their 4200kv motors on sale for cheap ($20).
Get 'em while they're hot.

And your point is?
How does your suggestion address the initial poster in this thread?
