Have you tried other motors with the gear reduction unit? I think the low gears are the trick but a higher RPM motor like a 35T or 45T would give you a little bit of speed........maybe, might be worth trying.

I use tamiya motor that comes in a kit, i guess its 27T? Works great for me. I think there is no need for buying slow motors when using GRU. Big T motors, 65T 85T 45T, they have no power. More powerfull motors have dubble the rpm, and GRU gives you torque to pull anything with it.

PS. Just checked tracking, your GRU landed in NY
