Just put the heatshrink back on it, shorten pr lengthen the distance between the ESC and the Schottky if you need to...but keep it on.

I think your car will probably run ok with out it, but if you need a little bit more oomph in a hurry then this large capacitor can deliver it to you quicker than your cells can.
