If your going racing I would go with the 3 Port RSpec. This motor with the 0801 pipe would take you from beginer through to being competitive at most levels. At first you cab run it a tad rich to take a little power out of it and maybe use a softer clutch set up (say 1 mm springs and maybe even carbon shoes) to make it docile out of the corners etc. Then change tune and clutch as you get used to it (race tune and 1.1 mm springs with all alloy shoes).
I am assuming you are racing a buggy not truggy ? Cheers
