I don't have a short course or other 1/10 that needs extra power though. As I said in the original post I know it's not the optimal motor choice, it's more of an experiment.

What was the setup you had the Vector 8 motor in?
I was thinking like you said, gear it with a higher reduction and rely on higher RPM (from voltage and/or timing boost). That's what I thought was best for 2-pole in 1/8 setups.
