Thanks Eric, it does help! I couldn't remember the proper Operating Temps and couldn't find any references on here to them! I don't have a Temp Gauge yet, but I'm gonna get one tomorrow. This should help us out a bunch!!!
Again thanks for the tips!

oh, yeah, get yourself a temp gauge, ...you can get one for like $30 from most hobby stores. Mine is about the size of a key fob for your 1:1 car ...I keep it in my pocket on race day and practices ...I measure temps after each heat. In general you don't want your motor getting above about 165-170. I always keep my motor temp below 160, usually 155ish.
