I am pretty sure it is over 11 pounds with the batteries. My guess is that the motor will be the weakest link in the summer - just speculation of course. :)

Late last night, I removed the Quark and ESC mount from the buggy and test-fitted the ESC. It fits, but barely. If the chassis has any flex, the battery tray will touch the ESC PCB - that's how close it is. I've been wanting to change things anyway, so sometime soon I'll be getting a new motor mount and a single battery tray. And I'll be getting a new 4s lipo pack. Dual 2s2s 8Ah MA packs are simply too heavy.

Thanks for the info guys... I will be watching this little esc closely. Not that I need any more escs. But it is nice to have options.
