I'm not overly fond of Castle Creations right now after all the trouble with the XL series and a Mamba Monster nearly having me toss a RC8.2 in the garbage. My Hobbywing just went kaput and I found this as an options. Anybody run this yet? I have tried a few of the Trackstars in my 1/10 scales and haven't had any problems with them yet. I run Turnigy Nano-tech lipos in just about everything. Dam good batteries but I'm skeptical about new unreviewed ESC's.
Turnigy Trackstar 200 amp 1/5 scale ESC
Specs:
car size: 1/5th scale
Working current: 200 Amps
Burst current: 1000 Amps
Cell count: 2-8s Lipo
Motor Type: Sensorless Brushless
On/off switch: Yes
Operation: Fwd/brake/rev - Fwd/brake only (Programmable)
Thermal overload protection: Yes

They also have a 1/5 brushless motor series. Might be a good alternative to the CC XL2 / Leopard combos we've been running:
