What gear ratio for racing?

I currently run a 11-32 rear cassette and a 38t front ring, but I think I'm a little slower than I thought I was. Should I go with a bigger front ring? Or should I go to a road cassette, something like a 11-26? Also, would my X.9 rear derailleur still work with a cassette like that?
