The Blue Streak might be the best choice out of the three. None are what we'd call fast but I'd avoid the Freedom like the plague.

ABC Hobby made two versions, one inboard and the other, the RZ which is has outboard. Flimsy plastic that won't like nitro and cracks easily, hard to get parts for as some Chinese outfit bought the molds.
If it's the RZ, the bushings on the OB wear out quickly and it will start tossing belts.
With the Kyosho boats, they're easier to find parts for as they do share some of the same parts as the CEN Racing/Genko Trading boats.
