Re: Fastest Most Powerfull motor out there
For the money, my bets are on gasoline powered. Although that's probably over 10lbs and probably not what you're looking for. You could get 3 CIMs for <$100. Brushless would be the way to go, but any decent brushless setup will run you more than $100. You might be able score a surplus golf cart motor, although that might be over 10 lbs.

We really need to know the application to offer any specific guidance.
