That motor appears to be really popular for racing. the kv rating is like 2300 I think. That's pretty beefy if that's true. Maybe someone personal familiar will pipe up about it but that is a short course truck motor. The turns vs kv rating can get a little weird to me at times.

It's small motor for a pede and only 2S. Couldn't find out for sure, but I think it's a 2 pole motor. You would just have to watch your gearing. If you gear it low for crawling it should be fine. Hopefully you weren't planning on buying that one on ebay. Overpriced unless you need the other stuff.

So 9t or 10t pinion and I would be fine
I also want the other stuff so it is a good price for the combo

Let us know how it turns out. To me the esc looks to be pretty good. I see the motor is race legal and guys use them in short course racing.
