Another choice since you are using a touring car would be to use a Feigao 380 (actually 400) size motor. If you got the 380 6s, you would get tons of speed in a lightweight motor. The advantages to using a 380 motor compared to a 540 motor are:
-Lower overall weight
-Lower weight rotor means quicker acceleration
-Won't pull as many amps (more runtime)
-Still more powerful than a SS5800 motor
-Cost ~$60

So, you would save $10 and get an extremely fast motor that would be comparable to a Hacker C40-6t. And you would have plenty of power. Since the amp draw of the motor would be lower, you could probably get away with using a MGM Compro 80amp controller, saving you even more money! The total cost for this extremely fast system would only be $245! That's compared to $290 for a MGm 120amp/Feigao540 6s!
