I don't think I would want the added wieght of 3s for racing purposes but it would'nt hurt my feelings if there was an L motor available with a kv around 5500; the mamba gets a pretty good workout.
How are the temps with the 5700? I tried both the 4600 and 5700 and both (and the ESC) got too hot for me, even on 2s geared 12T. An L motor with a kv of 5500 would be around 4 turn. That would pull quite a bit of current! 3s lets you use a lower kv motor to get the same speed and is easier to get the total power...
