I am not trying to be "top secret" about anything, I simply thought it was a case of only the wattage mattering in terms of battery damage. I apologise for being a NEWBIE.

I did in fact mention what motor and battery I will be using, a 1110-1Y (5000kv), with a 35c Hyperion 1600 3S, using a 10th scale sidewinder. It will be pushing a 13oz rc18t. Now before you get all technical and tell me that it is far too much power for the car, well, that's what I am aiming for. I will be gearing HIGH.

However, if you do think that I might have difficulty using the motor without undergearing it and overheating it, then I would like to know. Thanks.
