Are you guys opening the body vents? I ran a 27 on a 35 tonight with full motor timing and came off at 100. Track is high traction carpet technical layout turning 12 second laps. Esc is a Novak havoc spec. Motor is a Novak ballistic 21.5. Do you think its just the TP motor? I know motors can be different but 60 degrees is a lot. Are these new motors or do they have some time on them? My Novak motors cooled off after they had been run a while. Guess they had to settle in to be right.
You may also want to check the internal motor shims. They may be too tight.
