Hi Chris, my 2p's worth:

Durango 210 or Centro C4.1

7.5 Motor, you don't really need mega power.

Losi Xcelorin is not the most reliable item in the world, I would choose one of the new breed of speedo's that have a boost function.

90C batteries might be a bit feisty for 2WD, I only run 30C - 45C in 2WD and 4WD and that is plenty.

It is very easy these days to get carried away with lots of speed and power but you still have to guide it around the track!
