Lightbulb RB or Novarossi or LRP?? WHAT DO I GET!!

Ok so im looking to make my Kyosho Inferno GT a on road race car! Ive got upgraded servos upgraded wheels and tires and suspension. NOW is time to rip that POS .28 out and put in a jet pack of a motor! Here in Vegas we have a on road track but nobody is ever there an thats fine with me bcuz id rather have it all to myself lol so engine size and rules dont apply!!!
So pretty much i have 300 - 350 bucks left for a engine and i want it to rev like a monster on steroids and be able to hold its top end power. Ive only ever had a rc10gt with a os .18 and to me honestly it was fast but ehhhh not fast enough lol.
So you guys got the point im looking for some good advice!
The motors i have in mind are...
RB Killer 9
RB Speed .21
Nova Plus 35
LRP 30X Competition

Any input would be most appreciated as im a newbie trying to learn my way..
Thx Everyone!

Out of the engines you listed the 35+21 would be the best race engine. However it cost more than $350.

The M21 is a great race engine for the GT class. However it is more than $350 too. Plenty of bottom end, with awesome top end.

I'm going with the LRP 30x competition. Looks to be very strong and fast. Just can't figure out what pipe is best for on road.

You made the right pick. That 30 x is a powerhouse and revs like an onroad engine. The pipe you should get is a 9886 with a 41001 manifold. You might want to invest in some driveline parts though!

Maxy Cinco BT. It's fast, the price is good and it's a Novarossi.
