The JK C43 is a nice all around chassis. Also look at offerings from Mossetti as they work really well, too.

G27 or G7.  :D  Motors are fast and re-buildable. Definitely a step up in speed. They make chassis kits so you can solder your own.

This meets all your criteria  :good:

With the Flexi chassis you could build G12 motors and Run Production 24 or 16D and run Nascar or S16d and run GTP or Contender and run LMP 

 

lots of classes run the Flexi and use rebuildable motors you just need enough racers to play

Mark:

As mentioned before try the JK C43 or a Mossetti (Defender, Striker, Avenger) chassis with a Contender or  X-12 C-Can motor and a Ralph Thorne Racing Renegade, Viking, or Orca body.  I'm pretty sure that will cure your need for speed.

Whats your price point for your motors? The motors mentioned so range from $50-75 on the low end to over $300 for Group 27 or Group 7. That doesnt include basic motor building tools or top end tools like magnet zappers or comm cutters...

try one of the chicagoland motors or a hawk 9 - more speed, less bucks.
