I am a 'new hand' as well and I also have a TRF415. If you want to try touring cars, then Tamiya ESC TEU-101BK + White Pig / Black Pig motor is a good combo for beginners, mainly because it is very cheap. (around $200). But because it is cheap, don't expect it to perform like a world class ESC. It can only handle up to 23turn brushed motors.
However, if you think you will stay in this hobby for some time, its better to get better gear at the start.
