I would run the 1600kv motor on 6s geared for 35. I think it will give you the best result.

You need to write a guide on how to lower your efficiency dude. Dropping the epa will only heat the esc up more, and is a poor substitute for a properly setup system.

I am guessing (since I do not race) that you benefit from having a faster truck for qualifying in order to get a better placement for the main? I am also guessing the qual is shorter than the main? Yet another quaint but pointless method to determine the starting grid, IMO. Race officials should not allow gearing or setup changes for the qual to the main, IMO. Get racing back to skill, not equipment... Probably why I do not race...
