You are going to get lots of different answers but here is one option (the new actinium v4 motor is wicked fast). Team Powers MS-Radon and Actinium V4. Top-of-the-line electronics that fit within your budget.

With modified wind motors it isn’t really necessary at club racing level to spend a lot on the premium versions because they’re all fast. Almost any 8.5 should provide more than enough power for almost anybody. If your esc has timing profile capability you can get more speed and efficiency out of a given motor wind. Elite drivers will choose more power but most of us can’t translate the extra power into faster lap times, more often it translates into more mistakes.
