Yeah happy hardcore.. hope it reminds me of the old days. (Or the new ones, it's returning, at least in Holland it is.)
Prod. quality is pretty good. I'd put a chipmunk or female voice in it and send it out to some dutch happy hardcore label, and see what chances you have.
Yup it lacks of something. One thing I miss for sure is the dnb-like breakbeat. But overall, it's cool!

It's fooking wicked, nice work. It's good to see more Hardcore appearing on production websites.
In my opinion it doesn't need a vocal, the 'how long can you go' sample is good enough on it's own and the lead is cool.
My only criticism would be the structure. It's too short and the lead has been stretched out too much, it gets annoyingly repetitive after a while, even for hardcore! I'd shorten the length of time you have the lead playing for, play some beats and synths like those in the intro then a 2nd breakdown (maybe even with those dnb breaks Jay M mentioned) and then play the lead part again. This will make the track less repetitive and a bit longer, you should be aiming for around 6-6:30 mins
Great work though, look forward to hearing more of your stuff

PS I'd suggest posting your track on the production forum at ush.net This is the top Hardcore site and loads of top bods in the industry and their associates use it so you'd have a better chance of catching their attention.
and see what chances you have.
