Whatever you can handle but for a 2wd I wouldn't advise going beyond a 7.5t, maybe less. Some people run more powerful motors than that but our track isn't that big so its not required.

The speed and power of the cars these days is massively effected by the batteries. As Si said I wouldn't suggest anything higher than a 7.5 in 2wd or even an 8.5 if you have Lipo's with a high "C" rating.
