Will i need a booster? also can you recomend a starting rollout with an eXpress d3 motor and this esc.

Thanks in advance,

If you like going it alone, get the car you like best. If you want to be one of the guys, get one some of the other racers in your area are running, so they can help if you have a problem. You might also check to see if your hobby shop supports a certain brand, otherwise you will be mail ordering parts. Unless your version of the SPX is the very latest one you will need a booster or receiver pack. Rollout depends on your track, a long fast track could use 100-105, a small technical track might go as low as 70-75. Ask somebody at your track what they are running and go from there. Good luck and have fun!!
