Wouldnt matter most are 2200kv Make sure you get one that is efficient enough so you can gear it up , and not worry about heat.

Novak Ballistic 540 17.5 (Light Can design) LRP 540 X12 17.5 (Looks big but still compact, efficient) Speed Passion 17.5 V2 (Cheap) Losi 17.5 (Cheap same as old Novak, Hackers run a bit warm)
With sensor = Turbo and Timing (Very efficient) No sensor + Decent cogfree ESC = RPM (Non sensored motors tend to have a higher RPM, with less efficiency meaning kills battery faster)

Tekin u need a booster. Speed Passion Has a 1S ESC that doesnt need a booster. Castle has a 1S ESC also. Novak are trying to pull their heads out of their butt and make a decent ESC again.

Its as good as Tekin smoother but not horsebehind small. It has built in Heatsink and programmer. Tekin is compact small everythin built in but needs booster.

1S Motor and the ESC, that would be a Car Specific setup.
Or just get a Tekin RS and LRP X12 with a booster, you got to run a booster or rx batts which means more clutter and weight. BUT once you done pancarring you can stuff this system in a different car.

I can get some, have to check what mAh they are. But regardless you dont need that many mAh.
I am running 4000 in touring with turbo and doing fine.
Castle makes 2 1S esc i think also, something dean can help you out with if you anvil the ESC O.o
Motor wise i like the LRPs, But I seen the Speed Passion perform and they are as good. Ballistics are great also but run a little bit hotter, though they are super compact.

Oh LRP also makes a 1S ESC if you wanna get that. Castles 1S ones isnt too bad either as you know great warranty.
More mAh is true every where, but in 1S form are hard to get and are rare to find a High mAh pack at good price. And it also means weight. If you dont need that much why haul that weight around in ur car for a race ?
Cheap: Hacker 17.5 Cheap: Losi 17.5 EXP but i like: LRP X12 17.5 Reasonable Prices Efficient and diferent: Speed Passion 1S V3 Motors.
Or run anything that no one has, win the race and cause the sheep effect.

The tekin motor puts out 2,500kv and this LRP put out 2,200kv Tekin wins but lets check on Hacker and the other one.

Since you so concerned on KV... You really don't care about KV much given you want a decent amount. But at 300kv difference which can be made up in Timing, Rotor, Gearing with torque.
You are more concerned of their efficiency especially when you run 1S.
