I see 16-18 on the 4000-4700kv motors, wouldnt a lower Kv motor necessitate a larger pinion?
use one of the common speed calculators out there and shoot for a theoretical speed of 35 to 40mph.

If you have someone who can suggest gearing at your track for a 4000kv to 4700kv motor, then just determine that theoretical speed for a starting point and find what achieves this with your current KV motors. From there, watch temps.

That will in general get you in the ball part.
