Exclamation New Old School.. Going back to the Brushes

Have a charity race coming up and it's offering a "Vintage race" ...
I've picked up a new Re-release RC10 Worlds (Slider-85% complete) and an A stamped Gold Pan (used and abused donor-which I may make the actual event car)

Although "modern" electronics are permitted, I want to run a brushed 19T paired with an inexpensive esc, more modern servo (even a decent :"older styled" servo isn't cost effective) and will be running a 2s Lipo and my Sanwa Rx/Tx from my usual fleet.
I've seen Reedy Radon 2's in 19T.... but the description leaves more questions than answers...Is it just an oddly wound crawler motor?

Can anyone point me in the direction (Brand/Retailer/etc) of an actual "race" 19T brushed motor and NOT a crawler motor?
And... I've seen some cheap (cheap/inexpensive?? lol) Brushed ESC's on those Amaz-bay sites (HobbyWing Quicrun? - anywhere from 60a to (ILS-lol) 320a from like $35 or less... Viable? Trash?

Thanks in advance for positive contribution to my questions... and Yes. I know Brushless is better!

The Carson Cup machine is over here a well known used motor. It is a silvercan motor with I believe a 20 turn spec.

We've been using the Quickrun1060A in out Legends class along with the Late Model class on carpet using the 55T brushed crawler motor, 2S Lipo, (GensAce 3500 battery) and the combo works great in both classes. Don't let the crawler motor fool you into thinking it'll be slow. geared right, they can be fast. In the LM class, it's foam tire, pan car chassis, and a couple of body choices and they run as fast as the 21.5 RTC class. ESC's are only $20-25 but they hold up well. Motors run $12-15. Can't go wrong for the money.

Trinity makes amazing 19t brushed race motors. You can find them on ebay for cheap. A chameleon pro is awesome or a komodo is harder to find but is also a sweet motor. Honestly go to ebay and put in "trinity brushed" or 19t brushed" you will find what your looking
I think those radons are just cheap rtr style motors

Team Brood told me they can hand wind any rc sized armature so it is pointless to do a grand search.
