Default Help with Reedy 9.5 sonic

Hey guys, I am wondering about my new motor I have. I feel like it should have more power kinda in reserves if needed type thing. I understand there are many things that affect this. My ESC is a lrp sxxv2 and my gears right now are 87/17. Ive been crunching some numbers and I wanna try 87/19 to give me a closer wheel to gear ratio of 1:1. My first race this weekend my esc was getting hot but motor was only warm. I turned my timing up yesterday to 45 all of the way and test ran it for 6min. Its still warm and at 115 degrees. The reason im concerned is say for instance there is a quad and you just double double them at my track. I get to the second double and not enough speed or power to double second one. I dont have experience with this motor but maybe it just runs smooth and i need to mess with gear ratios more. Any help is appreciated
