If I read you right, a 4S pack of 3200mah is only going to get you maybe 8 mins on the track. 6400 would be quite at least double. A moer eff motor would help too.

I have a H. ST, and honestly, I think trying to go crazy getting CF stuff and high end bearings is a bit of a waste of time on such a truck. The hyper is just heavy. If you want a lightwieght, just spend the money and get a 8T or X2 or such up front.

Now, that is not to say the ST is not a capable racer as it. Its quite good. The steering is phenominal, and BL has more than enough power to make up for the extra weight. The times I've ran it on the track I never felt outclassed with the truck. Its way more down to driving ability. RCM Mike took the wheel of it for a bit and drove the S@#$ of it. Its a good truck stock.

Lastly, have you just thought about just getting a MMM and ditching the MM/bec and all that? That would make a cleaner setup, and more expandable down the line. For $145 you can't go wrong.
