HORSE POWER is POWER , WATTS is what we use for HORSEPOWER.

Your right inso far as it doesn't mean it's your best motor...some tracks are better with TORQUE than HORSEPOWER..and Some lower horsepower motors spool up quicker with HIGH RPM and suit a drivers style..but with lower WATTS or HORSEPOWER it's much easier to overgear...and kill the power band of a motor. A motor with MORE power usually has a tad wider power band and is a little more forgiving. (At least from what I've experienced)

I still maintain - you give me a HIGHER POWER (HORSEPOWER) motor and I can make it outrun your RPM motor. (I won't say I can OUTDRIVE the other guy - cause my driving SUCKS)

The characteristics of motors make the difference on the track it may be a torque or rpm motor. This depends on the strength of magnetic fields that determines if it is torque or rmp motor.
What we try to alter the efficiency at low revs or high or mid range. A motor will work at its best at a certain point and when it drops below or goes above that’s when it becomes inefficient and we go slower.

You will find it harder to get help with chassis settings because that will be the only edge that some drivers will have left.They will not be so willing to give up their secrets anymore.As of right now,i can get good chassis help,but time will tell.

For a brushless DC motor, the peak power and peak efficiency are very rarely at the same shaft speed, so you need to make the appropriate compromise between power (speed) and efficiency (battery life).
