I had good luck with my b44.1 19/81 and an lrp x12 6.5 this summer using the Sxx tc v2 with a fan. I recently sold the TC spec and went to the comp(no fan or sinks) after hearing the tc spec doesnt like the off road abuse so much. apparently a board in the esc can come loose off road.
Anyways I probably have twenty something batts through my current comp/6.5 setup.
Never had an issue.
Yes, the 6.5 and my lil sxx comp get hot. But I just try to run for as long as necessary(the length of mains or quals)
I have had no problem doin wheelies down the straight with this current setup(thoguh my diffs hate when i drive like that.)
This lrp stuff will run hot. Vent the body. My Bull dog has holes tons of holes.
