Hi,

I know this might have been covered before, but I can't find an exact answer when using the forum search....

Yesterday evening I was running my car, with the X11 5.5T on a LRP TC SPEC. I am using the WCE kit spurs and pulleys, so I can use jimmy's gearchart.

Jimmy's gearchart told me I had to use a 18T/91T pinion to get the 1:10 ratio recommended in the X11 manual for 4WD off road.

So I started out running a 18T pinion, but after one run, everything was extremely hot. Even my Lipos where hot and I had one trackpower cell blowing up. Motor temp around 71 C.

So could you give me some pointers on how to solve this? Am I doing something wrong with my pinion ? Do you guys use cut outs in the bottom shell ? Or perhaps a motor fan ?

Suppose some of you guys also use this combo, so what pinions are you using ?

Thanks...
