You could get a Xtreme Stock and 11.5T motor from Giantcod for just over £70. That ESC won't really go down to 8.5T off-road, but I'd seen a cr2 with it powering a 10.5, and it was absolutely ballistic! I'd say plenty quick enough for a 2wd buggy, no better ESC for a touring car, but maybe lacking the amp grunt for 4wd or short course.

The Xerun 1S (the Xtreme Stocks big bro) is (at best) £73 on ebay atm. No room for a motor there, alas.
