As for having the power, if your motor is not getting hot, I would say gear up or you can play with some timing. I found using a little as 5 degrees of timing in say a turbo fashion (ie- after a certain RPM range) really woke up my Tekin Pro4 4000Kv motor.
Or, you can go with something with a higher Kv. It may be that the competition is just using really powerful motors at your track.
by the way, how would you describe the conditions you run on?
Well SRS is well groomed hard pack with a bit of fluff, sticky when wet, loose when dry. Glitch is hard packed and loose on top. Not quite a loamy track but it does have some lose dirt on top of the hard pack at times.
The hacker 4 pole I have is the newest one. Its a 450 5.5 can. I also have a Tekin SC4X 4.5 I can put back in. What ESC settings in the RX8 do you recommend? I hate being suck a great driver indoor and then look like crap outdoor. Its not my lines, its just the speeds.
