I've always told myself no sense in having the biggest and baddest motor or ESC if I can't control it. I have a spare 21.5 but think I will look into a 17.5.
The track I race at has a 13.5 class but don't think they will have a problem if I run a 17.5 with them.

That said, 17.5 is very easy to drive in 1/12th and is a great place to start for someone just beginning. If there is a 17.5 class where you race, I would run that. If you want to be faster than everyone else, just don't hit anything.
