Thanks!

I am guessing that you are trying to perform griffinru's stage 1 mod. If so the need for fans may not be necessary. I ran my 1/8 buggy with a feigal 7xl, geared for 40mph, and a 10000mah 4s lipo (=very heavy) with a modded mm and a regular mm. The unmodded mm did need a fan and temps were still a little on the high side. With the modded mm I did not need the fan and the overall performance was much better. Since you are running a truggy, the added tire weight will put more strain on the motor and cause more heat at the motor, that may be of more concern than the esc, however the hotter motor will cause the esc to heat up due to higher current draw for wasted power production (heat).
