A friend who races oval cars told me it was ok, because they were under 70*over ambient ( 95* at time), but i never like to run anything over 130 if possible. At time the batteries were 160, so were the esc and motor

Dont all mamba setups seem to get that hot, I seem to think it would be ok as long as I dont get above 190.Why would nimhs make the brushless run real hot? Dont most people not trying to spend a fortune, maybe not this forum, use nimh and have good results?
