Probably not. If set on a XRay I'd suggest looking for used. Soon after the new model is released, the older ones usually start to pop up for sale. I bought my T4 14 model few months after the 2015 came out. Got full car plus spares I still haven't needed for less then the kit alone.
With these being kits, it's your choice as to what moto/esc is used. Lipo fit fine,both standard and shorty sized. Some of mine use bullet connection, some use more typical deans/Traxxas connections. It's your choice.
How is the pavement since sounds like track running will be secondary use? I run mine on both prepared and unprepared surfaces.
Tc4 is shaft driven, the tc7 and T4 are belt driven.
