Default Gearing for 3s slash 4x4

I have a slash 4x4 with the Traxxas bl system in it. I have put a Max Amps
3s 9000xl pack in it. I was wondering what to gear this at. I have the 13t pinion in it now with the 54t spur, it is getting 200 degrees on the motor and 160 on speedo after about 10 minutes of running it.

Pretty sure thats stock gearing...

put a fan on the motor and on the motor with a heat sink...

A lot of heating problems comes from batteries that arent as good as they say they are either. Especially they higher mah rated ones. Im not saying yours are but some are not discharging at the rates they "claim" which in turn causes extra heat buildup.
