apologies if I did not make that clear

original theory still stands if one motor overheats in one car and a "similar wind motor doesn't (one wind and 1 pinion wont make that much difference on a short test run fit to to car that overheats and that will prove one way or other

i think you need spec savers or more sherry

"hi i run a 4wd indoor on mostly carpet slippy floor.i run a 9.5t 80/26.
this runs in the nice range of temps ,but i also have a spare car with a 8.5t 80/25."

9.5 on 26 pinion, and he has a 8.5 on 25 pinion?
he IS lower on pinion for the hotter motor! he has not gone up?
