Speeds over 30-35mph will tend to overheat a MM. Don't forget it's technically a 10th scale ESC meant for lighter vehicles. Gear down is the answer. Unfortunately, the fairly low reduction in the diff makes this difficult. You are already at 13T. 12T gets you in the 35mph ballpark with the 8XL, but still may be too hot.

I normally would not advise this, but try a fan on the ESC.
