I run my E-CRT.5 at a high quality indoor track and it sucks a new 4800 2s lipo dry in about 20 min. This track is pretty tight, so the back straight is the only full throttle area, but it is also high traction so you can use a good bit of throttle everywhere. My set up is a Novak GTB & 6.5 (5900kv) with Panther Switch 2.2 truck tires geared 46/12-13.

You definitely don't need an XL motor in this vehicle, my little Novak pushes the crt.5 around the track very fast and it doesn't get hot. I run a fan on the esc (probably doesn't need it), and don't even have a heat sink on the motor. Something in a L can around 3000-3200 kv on 3S would probably be ideal for this car.

Let us know what you decide.
