I don't think the 1515 2.5D on 5s is too much for the track. With the gearing I usually use (46/12) it has less top end than almost all the other 4s truggies I race against. Even when I did some practice laps on 6s with it and 46/13 gearing it was very fast, but still controllable. And how much you spin the wheels just depends on how you drive.
