Its good to see there's quite a few guys from Texas here, would you guys mind shooting me a PM of the places to race down there and possibly a race schedule/class type? Thanks a bunch, and great lookin' CRT, extra clean install, I like.

Our local(Corpus Christi) track is Starcar Raceway we usually race every 2nd and 4th Saturday and run 1/8, Monster, and 1/10th scale. We have been down on atendance for about a year and usualy only have 8-15 entries. Gears is the Harlingen track and is hosting the Roar region 9 electric race this weekend. Their schedule varies but you can keep up with both tracks at RCfiles:

And of coarse your probably familar with Toys4BigBoys in San Antonio which is the other track I race at most frequently:http://www.toys4bb.com/

Nice looking conversion, I am sure that it is better now for racing purposes. I still prefer my LS10, but it is a basher and lacks the center diff of the crt.5. I agree with brian on the higher voltage issues. How about running a 4s1p pack on a lower wind l motor? Those 2200 cells are good for 40 or so amps and that would be fine for a 11 or 12l can motor. Or even a low wind s can?! Not sure if the run time would be comparable. Or go with a lehner 1920/30 or neu1506 with a similar kv to the mm motor, would be cooler running and maybe scratch out a few more minutes out of that 4200 pack. The maxamps 2200 cells are good, I have a few 3s packs and they have been used in most of my rc collection!
