IMHO, run times are determined more by the track you're running on than your gearing, although you do need to gear correctly for the track. That being said, what pinion are you running?

I have a friend who I believe is running 44/14 5000mAH on the same Tekin setup in his RC8Te and is getting just under 20 minutes on the local track. I'm running 44/16 5200mAH on a Mamba Monster 2650Kv in my RC8e and get just over 20 minutes.
