I don't know the top speed, but it seems close to 40. We run a smaller track though - not full 8th scale. Anyway, I can run my setup cool for just under 20 minutes before my battery dies. At full race scenario, my motor temp is 120 and the esc is about 130. I would agree about getting a cool running 40+ mph on 5s though. When a good esc comes out, my setup will be insane. I'm tempted to keep it 4s due to how awesome it is right now though.

Hope that helps you.
Thanks you two. The info was what I was looking for. It looks like that is the real deal w/ the ESCs. I would really like to just go to 6S when a capable controller w/ good CS+support comes along, and have 3S packs to share between my trucks. 50mph is fun, but its really too much for most things, so my hope is to go 5-6S and aim for ~low 40s and be extremely reliable and cool. Any chance a Feigao (~12XL) could do this as a stop gap? Relaistically I'll be upgrading in stages.

Sorry for the hijack.

& +2 on Mike/Lehner
and Boo on BK.
