3s+9L in a lightweight 1/8th buggy ????

I just got my turmoil going this week, and have been running it with a 7xl, 3s 4000mah hecell's. Thats the only bats I have at the moment. I have not ran a whole pack through it to voltage cut, but ran it for 10 min yesterday, most of which were wide open runs back and forth across the yard in about 3 1/2" grass. The pack was warm, esc was cool, motor was not hot, but pretty warm. Pack took 2300mah of charge. I am really pretty impressed on how it runs on 3s. I first had a 9xl, the largest pinion I have was a 15, and it was a dog, so I thought I'd try the 7xl, much better. Hope this helps.
