Thanks all

I've not been into rc since I was a kid and recently have been given an old Tamiya Hornet which I'd like to improve speed and runtime wise before I get something more modern. It (like all r/c's at the time) has a mechanical speed controller that I'd like to upgrade - how and any recommendations on parts? I've bought a couple of lipo's, some connectors to replace the Tamiya ones, a low power warning buzzer, a full bearing kit and stronger steering arms - need suggestions on a motor, if this is possible and any general tips. I already know it's likely not the best starting platform :/
