Go for 4S and you will be satisfied with with perfomance. Maybe on buggy its OK but for truggy its definatly not enough. If pack can deliver enough amps it will be definatly hotter setup than on 4S.
I think real potencial of RX8 system starts from 4S battery

Hmm...I've had no problems with my 3S pack. Truth be told, I'm satisfied with the performance on 3S.
Then again, I'm running a 2700KV motor compared to the 2200KV you have. That could also be a factor.
Another possibility is that the "C" rating of your 3S pack could be a bit low.
And it could also be that maybe the nitros here are slower compared to the ones you run with.
4S on my truggy is great...but it's overkill for the track.
Just my two cents.
