Even when bashing, my temps have never exceeded 140F on an 80+F day. I've yet to run it when it gets really hot here (90-105F), but so far so good for me. Believe what you like, but since you've never tried this setup, been at my local track, etc. then it's only your opinion based on your experience with your particular setup. My statements are facts from my runs and experience with my setup.

they way you write it, I would believe your figures. It's easier for people to say "noo, that doesn't work"... still, it's hard to believe.

the negative of high voltage is the extra weight. 4000mah 4s is lighter then 6s 4000mah. every gram of mass extra, you have to accelerate and stop. this causes stress on the components. your cars isn't heavy, so it's not that hard work for a 74mm motor.

I have once read, that in 1:1 car racing every extra kg requires xx horsepower to be the same fast. that's why I don't like today's cars with all that electric extra stuf nobody needs. that's why I like my vintage benz...
