I don't have a datalogger so I can't tell what current is being drawn on my 80A. I know it doesn't get above 85F (29.5C) and runs really cool. I'm hitting about 40mph, but really fast. I think I need taller gearing. My motor only gets to 105F doing lots of speed runs. It would run cooler on a track probably.
Firmer tires are easier to rotate as the contact patch is reduced. There's always a compromise. I'm more familiar with supsension and tire tuning on real cars. While most of those concepts apply in the scale world, I'm not sure if all do.
