I have seen references to that the motor may be under geared causing it to run hot maybe?
I have seen that in some instances that an overgeared motor may run cool but the esc and batt's run real hot,I am not sure what thread I saw it on,but I have seen it here.
the truck tops out real quick,our straightaway on the track is roughly 120ft,the truck sounds topped out at about half that,had a buddy tell me that he thought the truck was undergeared,was just afraid to try the 23,I didn't have any time today to play with any of the settings either.
I have started working on the chassis so I could fit 2 25c tp 4s 5000 packs on the truck in parallel,runtime seems to be about 20minutes on the 2 2s packs.
Hoping 2 4s packs would increase the runtime past 30min.The state races we have here in florida runs 30min a-mains.
I think I would do better doing the stop-n-go's for pit stops rather than changing packs mid race.It is turning out pretty good so far.
I have to get another tp pack though as I only have one at the moment

I tried a 25 tooth pinion with the 40 tooth spur. It cogged on startup and the temps were high. It had more top end, still topped out quickly, but runtimes were shorter. With the higher temps, I figured it wouldn't last.
If you add more battery capacity, along with that is some more added weight. I think I would try the same gearing first, since you're asking it to carry more and see what happens.
Here is a mod that I did to the E maxx. These fans help cool the slipper clutch area and also blow air on the other side of the motor plate.
Perhaps you could come up with something for the E Revo that would help things.
