Im not really looking to race(I live in seattle dont know of any 1/8 buggy classes near by) but I enjoy seatac offroad and my local park mayhem sessions. I may race one day but dont have alot of free time(newborn baby girl). Any recommendations and a good overall motor and esc for my scenario? Price doesnt matter much as long as I get a deal. Thanks!
The closest 1/8 scale track to you is Marysville and is called j&s raceway. I run my EB48 there. There is also another track in Burlington. You can practice at Tacoma RC but there isn't normally enough 1/8 scales to race. I use the tekin Rx 8 esc and have had great success with it. I know allot of guys on here use hw with great success too. The have never tried them. From what I have seen most at the track have moved on from castle. I believe they do offer waterproof escs if that is important to you.
