I would stick with the MMM if you plan to gear a heavier 1/8 car for high speeds. Amp draw will be high. Nothing against the mmpro, but I know the MMM can handle it. And there is not much of a price difference.
Or if you want to go cheap, try one of the new trackstar escs from HC. I would lovwe to know how that esc will hold up and you can be the guinea pig!!! Oink!!
I did 73mph (and it would have gone 80 if I had a larger area to test in) with a tamiya tt01 (100 bucks for the kit), lola style 200mm nitro body (no wheel cutouts), and a feigao 380c motor on 3s lipo with a MM. I have a feeling the sidewinder sc system on 3s with the right gearing will easily get a 10th tc over 75. So you can score a tc for 50-75 bucks, around 100 for the sc system, 50 for a lipo (turnigy/zippy 3s 40c) and figure around 50-100 for tires, body, etc. So 250-300 there.
I would rather spend the extra and have an 1/8 setup. You can always gear it down and play in a parking lot when you get tired of top speed runs.
