Lightbulb pack dies then comes back to life

This is everything I used
Losi xxx-4
Spektrum Radio
SMC 3300's (bought the pack used, looks pretty old)
Tekin G11 esc
Orion 11 turn

I used the pack for a good 3 minutes then stoped to try other tires, after about 1 min the pack slowed down and the car stoped moving. I picked the car up set it back down and it started running again for another minute then it died.

Any idea why it died then came back to life?

I doubt that'll be your battery mate. Likely your speedo or motor overheating

Id say its possiably the motor. . With a sticky brush?

Take it apart and give it a good clean with some motor spray, And poss a skim/rebrush ?
