Thanks highvoltage, I'll be using it for fun runs after work to reduce stress and for hanging out with my 9 year old and his Stampede, so fun fast runs would be mostly what I'd want to do. I just want to have a really nice killer buggy so the 2650 may be the one for me.

How hot will this thing get or will it depend on the battery packs? What battery backs should I look at that won't create crazy amounts of heat buildup?
