Hmm I ran exactly these settings yesterday (sourced elsewhere) with a 4.0 and I had no top end whatsoever, I ended up going back to 528 mod and had heaps more power, thinking now that maybe the settings didn't send to the ESC properly. The track I was running on had a 62m straight 

did you also had problems with the motor overheating ?

Another racer was running a boosted 4.5 and I must say it made my car look like it was standing still at the end of the straight. Crazy fast, but harder to control. Here is a link to round 1 qualifying: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHp3L...eature=related
Yellow car is me, Pink car is the boosted 4.5. I was 2 teeth undergeared here, so the speed at the end of the straight was a bit slower than the later rounds.

This is what i think i Emailed to you and with gearing of 8.0 i was so fast it was almost uncontrollable , and SO fast on the straight , i actually didn't drive mod in ETS , because i was snapping belts and not braking enough at then end of the straight and crashing A LOT this is why i am suprised you have no top speed , try a 4.5 and see what you have meybe 4.0 and 5.0's dont like too much timing

I can assure both JIMMY and PHIl's setup with 323stock and MOD are PLENTY FAST and drivable as I used both setup and drove at a 1/8th track and the car is the fastest thing ever that I drove (compare to 4.5 no boost and I was using boost 6.5).
However, our track is prepped for 1/8th NITRO on road race that day so traction is top notch....almost impossible to have anything that is not controllable. I have seen a lot of ppl understeer, but have not seen anyone that is oversteer except me.........on the same video, my car broke only in like 35 seconds by using 323stock and 6.5, it sheered off my front CVD into 20 differnet pieces and I was driving 3WD that caused my car undrivable...
way too much power...but I LIKE IT very much. We are planning to do that again in 3 weeks and will run with Paul Lemuiex running SP GT2.0 PRO ESC with Thunderpower 4.5T.

I am not exactly sure what you mean 90% of the power was within 50%-60% of the throttle range....like it is in 2-speeding? It might have to do with the DRRS setting...what is your DRRS at?

I think you are running sensorless mode...can you remove the sensor wire and see it ran the same...?

No the motor was stone cold 
I don't think there's any problem with running 4.0 with boost, when I put 528 it felt like it had a lot more boost so I think the settings or software didn't take properly when I first loaded 323. I'll give it another go this weekend and let you know how I go, cheers
