is their a difference and by how much. Advantages/Disadvantages.

Other than the obvious spektrum optimized thing, I'm not sure. I do know that I run the original non-spektrum GTB in my SC10 with my Spektrum radio and it works just peachy.

Unless you're racing at a high level of competition, I it being necessary to spend the extra money on the optimized version.

Here's the ESC chart from Novak's site that shows all the specs for both of 'em.

Here's Novak's description of the Spektrum Optimized version:

Seems that it has faster switching MOSFETs or whatever... runs cooler.
