Can also advice to go for the Servonaut motor. It's number 1 for the Tamiya trucks,a lot of power reserve, suitable speed. One do not need more than one gear (for most normal RC trucking use) Very popular motor for the ones who are a bit into the hobby and actually like to do some realistic driving. I think the 3 step gearbox is in the Tamiya kit's mainly because it look impressing with a the 'slice through' picture of it on the boxes. It sure looks impressive on the pictures, but it's not very practical in use, along with the original Formula 1 motor. Naturally, if one are into speeding up and down the street, it's just fine.
