Being a little more specific on what Super you're putting it may help?
But, is there really a "best" It's a very subjective question.
I would bet you're going to get a different answer from every poster.

My advice would be to talk to Johnrobholmes from Holmeshobbies, a vendor here on the forum.
He'll set you up with some very good options.

what kind of crawling will you do? Fun, or competing? A brushed motor is your most inexpensive solution, but "best" is very subjective. If money is no object then two sensored systems would have high power and zero maintenence. Two sensorless systems would have light weight and high power at a lower cost, but low speed control would suffer.

For a budget to get you going, two 55t motors from Integy, Novak, or Tekin would be a great start. If you are looking for higher performance you can look for a Handwound brushed motor from JP Customs or myself. I think a brushed motor would be the best place to start so you don't spend hundreds and hundreds on a dual motor setup.

I run 35t motors in my Clod based super and would not have it any other way.
