That may be. But you greatly underestimate the power of a Jonin at about Kage caliber. Without Sharingan, Kakashi still became the Hokage, and though these kiddos were strong, I wouldn't classify them as Kage caliber. I think Kakashi has the ability to win this. If Kakashi is fast enough to compete with Gai and be his rival, I doubt even with their stacks, they were faster than Gai. We know Kakashi can utilize the Gates and Flicker without Hand Signs. And that he has the speed to compete with Gai and be his rival (Of course Gai is faster), as well as enough speed to cut Lightning. I would classify them as advanced Jonin level with all their stacks, but a Kage is still miles ahead.
