Default too much torque!!

so i have a castle 2200 in my 8ight and its WAY too much.
i am overshooting the triples by 10 feet consistently.
buying a new motor is not an option for me so i need to figure out how to best lower the performance a bit.

i am currently running it at 70% thru castle link.
i am running a 43spur with a 15pinion.

would i be best to drop the % thru castlelink some more?
or get a higher spur? or lower pinion?

appreciate any input.
while it is awesome the air i get out of this buggy.. chassis slapping the flat track every single lap is causing me physical pain.
