Yeah, I would guess lots of burned up motors and speedos, and too much complaints and warranty claims. They did have a RTR (or maybe they called it "combo" version) of the SC8e with the LRP system for awhile, but it only lasted a short time before they discontinued it.

80931-25 — SC8e/SPX8/Vector 8 2500Kv *Discontinued*
80931-28 — SC8e/SPX8/Vector 8 2800Kv *Discontinued*

That said, I am going to try out the Vector 8 motor in my on-road GT, but it's a different application (small wheels, low rollout) than 1/8 SC, and I know how to gear a vehicle properly. Even then I'm unsure if the results will be acceptable. So I can imagine someone throwing in 6S with the 2800kv in the SC8 with stock gearing would be in for some big problems.
