Default ESC Troubles???

Bought a Novak HavokPro ESC w/Novak Balistic 6.5 to put in my new Hyper10SC with the stock 11t pinion and stock spur. First time out with the truck. I raced at OCRC and got through 2 heats fine. Started the main and went 7 laps and the vehicle quit running. I checked and made sure all the connections were good. Took the vehicle home and tried to duplicate the issues. I used 2 separate charged and balanced lipos to make sure it wasn't the battery. The racing lipo was 2s 5000mah 7.4v 40c, the other was a 2s 5000mah 7.4v 20c. Both batteries had the same result, vehicle stopped running after about 3 minutes. Checked for heat (ESC, Motor and Battery) and it wasn't hot to the touch.

Any suggestions??? I am getting ready to send the ESC to Novak to get it checked out.

Thanks
