But you might be right about the settings being wrong - the brakes seem awful sharp.
no, the loading on the motor from the transmission is a lot more, bigger wheels to rotate for starters, plus a buggy weighs more too.

But, as long as the motor is ok, I would look at the settings, timing advance and throttle limiter for starters.
