I added a heat sink and a different set of fans yesterday. I ran it on my track doing the outside oval for a full charge it went just over 20 min. I got 110 on the controller and 146 right were the wires go in the motor. The controller heat sink was 103 and the motor sink was 130. It was right around 80 with 90% humidity.
I used a trinity motor mount as the heatsink and switched to the small novak fans, which blow an incredible amount of air reguardless of their size.
