Checked things over and could not find any obvious problems. Motor temp was about 158. I ran the car again for my next heat. Same thing after about 7 minutes.

I suspect that maybe I need to run a receiver pack with a mod motor or maybe I have an issue with my speedo or Rx. Can anyone steer me in the right direction? (no pun intended )

I would run a cap on your receiver to start and if that isnt enough-then yes-you'll need a reciever pack with the DSM.

The GTX doesnt require a Recv pack to work with DSM-but maybe the GT7 will? I dont know for sure.
