Lehner Basic XL 2400 getting hot on 2cell Lipo?

[hyperasus]

I am using the Mamba Max controller and Lehner Basic XL on a stock plastic Stampede(metal dif & idler gear). Should my motor be getting hot? Whats a guy got to do to get a cool running motor around here. I have 8000mah and 12000mah lipo packs and need something I can run balls out for long periods of time without melting anything. I have an 8000mah 3cell lipo pack I was hoping to use with this motor but it just gets way to hot even on 2cell. Can anyone coment on how hot the new Maba Max motors run? I am trying to decide on either getting the Mamba Max 4600kV Combo, or just drop the coin for a Lehner 1900 motor. Wanderer 12s is another option. I just want something that runs as cool as possible.
