@IMRob "185 for motor temp and 153 for the esc with out the fan on" is an acceptable motor temp on the Rx8 Gen2 and T8.

9 times out of 10 when I hear of someone having issues it's related to setup, gearing, etc. 4wd SC is the highest amp draw class we have in rc racing right now. As previously stated they're the heaviest cars, with the fastest lowest turn motors, and least amount of battery voltage at 2s.

4wd SC oval guys:

The 4wd Sc chassis was never designed for oval racing. So you're taking a car and using it in a manner it wasn't intended. Then you're using a 4000kv motor which is meant for 2s not 3s. While this "may" work at times you're dancing with an edge and you guys have found it.

I'd like to see some video of those trucks hustling around the track. Anyone have it?
