I run the kb45 8l in my gtp and it is geared for 50mph. No issues at all with that load. With the 8xl you will have plenty of power. It will run warm, but I do not see you having any issues with it. No load revving a motor is a bad idea. Even a little throttle can push an unloaded motor past its max rpm. All bl motors will heat up fast if run unloaded.
