The 35plus is faster than the off-road motors you mentioned in the GT. The 35plus should be very strong. What gearing are you using? Also, what pipe & header are you using?

We would recommend 15/19 pinions with 49/45 or 46 spurs. For exhaust, use the 41019 header with the 51004 or 51010 pipe.

If you still want more grunt for the short shoots then we would recommend a ROMA 25. The ROMA is king in the short shoots.
