Last time I ran 12th the brushless set-up had not taken off yet (still 19 turn and mod) so I don't know if BL will work that well or what. I'm looking at used 3.2 cars, since that is what I had last and loved it. Any reason why getting one for running club-level races should be an issue? Part of my deal is that I want to see if it takes off locally first, before diving too deep. I still have a bunch of parts from my last CRC car too.
At a club level the 3.2 is a great car. just a couple of updates to make it easier to drive and for strength

The pro strut front end swap Way easier to work on and adjust

and the Side links need to be switched for turnbuckles.

A Brushless motor do fit. I have seen Spedpassion 10.5 and tekin 10.5 in them. You may have to adjust the left side bulkhead to fit the sensor wire.
