Chris, your motor is not the thing stopping you getting up the table-top, you just need to carry a little more speed onto the take-off ramp. Its tempting to slow down, so you dont over-shoot the landing and go into the fence, but with more practice you'll get the hang of that, lots of people struggle with it at first.

Also, when you go up a pinion to gain more top speed, you put more strain on the ESC and your temperatures will go up, so you need to balance that against the gearing too.

For now i wouldnt worry about speed, you just need more track time to get used to it. You did really wel for your first race, but indoor holds new challenges with the slippery floor sections, throttle control becomes very important.
