You can't go wrong with Hitec. Relatively cheap. Decent customer service.

You can get some pretty beefy and quick servos from Savox for around $60.

I have a few Savox SC-0252MG servos and have had really good luck with them. They are just under $40, but you'll likely have to add a glitch capacitor which will bring it up to about $45.

If you're super budget minded then these are pretty good for the price...they're pretty solid.

Can't go wrong with the various Savox or Hitec Metal\Titanium gear options if you can afford it.

+1 on these solar servos. Been running these in my eight scale without a problem so far. Just kinda noisy.Shouldn't be any problem runnin one on a oval car. Less stress than offroad.
