Or should I just set it up rear motor with long pack for the novice?
What kind of track are you racing on?
For 17.5 racing I prefer a high power shorty set all the way back with the ESC on top of it. I get good traction and the truck is still on the light side. My setup is for medium to high traction dirt.
