The motor depends entirely on three things;
1) the size of the track
2) the surface you are running on
3) your skill level
The predator is VERY responsive to throttle input so if you are on a slippy track with a powerful motor and little skill, then you won't be on the track for long.
If you have the 6.5 already then turn the top end down via the esc. If you don't already have the motor, buy a 7.5. Tekin Redlines are very good.
Personally, I ran a 5.5 in my pred. It was way too fast for me to run competitively with, but it was bloody good fun on the straights.
