The top driver there at my track is recommended a Rotor Ron Slot Machine so that’s on my list now. Here is some of the motors I’ve been looking at but open to any other suggestions
Team Powers Actinium V4
Fantom Icon/Helix
Reedy S-Plus
Trinity Slot machine
You can't go wrong with anything RotorRon, in my opinion. Just be sur to follow his directions, which is LEAVE THE TIMING ALONE after he's set it. Just play with gearing after that.

I think all the motors you listed are decent, except the Reedy, was never a fan.
