Hope I'm not butting in but I figured I could offer some help.
Both engines are super quality and you would be happy with both but here are the general on track differences.
Kangaroo: smooth power, great fuel milage, good for smaller tracks
35plus: monster power, great small or big track engine, fuel hog
I don't how experienced you are in on road but I would say most will make runtime with both, the more experienced you become and faster you get the 35 will be harder to make 5 minutes with. If you get pretty dialed in the 35 could lower your lap times by around .2 - .3 per lap.
Hope this helps!

Houston, I will be getting a hold of you about what I want to order. Gonna go over to TZ prolly today so I will talk w/ Andy and/or Mark about the best route for a green horn.But after Paul's description above, I think I will be leaning towards the Kangaroo. And I will try and sell another engine or 2 for ya. Then we'll order. Still got a little time before the outdoors get going, so we'll have plenty time to get it done. One more thing, pm your cell #. I dont have your # anymore.new phone. thanks man.

can you get me quote on this 7 port when ya can. Sounds like the 7 ports are plenty for newby's (like me) and the local tracks around. Sounds like the 9 ports are Ballistic and probley for the more skilled
gonna be hard enough to get used to a 2 speed.
thanks,
