The lvc is set too high.
and/or
In spite of an impressive mah count on the battery, the battery itself can't put out anywhere near that so it starts to tease the lvc into triggering under load prematurely. That could be because the battery is old, was purchased from a website in English only so far as Google translate could get it that way from Chinese, etc., etc.
WTF?? You two clearly have no idea of running a Pro4 SCT. I run a 4700 Hobbywing and get about 15 min out of a 6000 80c pack. Temps after I hit a LVC of 3.4 is about 130* running an 17t pinion.

Is 7-8 min about right??
7 to 8 is a bit short. You could try lowering your Punch or Current limit setting depending on your ESC. Also being smoother with the throttle will help a lot, not so much point and shoot.
