When the ESC is hot, it actually usually means that you are overgeared. But the ballooning of the front wheels would cause the motor to actually get hot because it is spinning so fast (high RPM's) with no resistance. I am running 10K weight oil in the center, as I like the feel of the car with the thicker oil, but most run anywhere from 5K to 10K in their BL CRT.5's.
