The HV-110 is a great ESC for car use, aside from the aforementioned lack of brakes and reverse.
It's smooth, has good programming (although no throttle/brake curves), and is pretty cheap. I have one in my beast of a Savage that's extended with a custom center diff setup, running 10s1p A123 (used to be 10s2p A123) geared for about 50mph. Only problem is I keep killing the cheap Chinese motors (Feigao + Hobby City), so I have a Medusa 36-80 on order.
