Anyway, I talked to my LHS and he might exchange the ESC for a Tekin ( I'll cover the price difference)
Don't get wrong I hope it works for you, The key is 4 WD, Not the short course reference. 4 Wheel Drive greatly reduces the kv you can run.

Only trying to help. Been in the hobby 30 years & seen the simplest thing problems for months.
Yes it will run open mod in a 36 ounce, 2wd pan car but not a 4 pound off-road 4wd buggy.

Check with racers at your local track, gear ratio, drag in the drive train, a bad bearing, wrong settings on your radio or esc can also create the problems you are having.
