Questions?? rc8be and puffed lipo's :(

So i am lost here. I have a rc8be with a mamba monster 2200kv setup. The gearing is 15 46. I was running 2 newer (always balanced charged) Trak power 5600mah 60C packs on the street. After about 5 min i stopped and both packs were puffed. The motor temp was 150F and the esc was not hot.
I checked the lipo's cell voltages battery 1 had cell voltage of 3.93 and 3.94 and the other lipo had cell voltage of 3.97 and 3.98.

With the temp being around 150 i thought i was good. was i under geared?



thanks for any help here, Joe

P.S i just recharged 1 of the lipos it took 1387 mah and finished with cell voltages of 4.204 and 4.206
