The only experience I have with an outrunner in a car/truck is in my SCX10. It works great, but you can't really compare that to a 1/8 e-buggy.

If you decide to try that motor remember to grind a flat spot onto the shaft for the pinion set screw. Put the motor in a plastic bag and poke the shaft through

Along those same lines keep in mind is that the motor if relatively open to the elements, if you run in dirty/dusty areas make sure to keep an eye on that. Should be able to blow dust out with a compressor, but a pebble lodged between the magnets and windings could spell trouble.
