With the rolling wheels and such I don't see how you you say the BAD temps were due to CD unloading. I imagine the directness of the CD is rough on a motor though. Have you thought of getting a slipperential?
When weighing did you account for the G4 having all 8 shocks?
Badlands suck a hard cornering on any surface. I'm in search of a substitute. I really like Flo's tires at the moment.
I love your truck! Will we see Lipo after Christmas?

Edit: P.S. @ the spur: Too much power?

Hey Zack, I see your point... I was really hoping changing the motor again wouldn't be the fix (my friend here is going to annoy me with 'I told you SOs')... The 1518 does sound attractive, but if I get it, I would have to put off my lipos buys for now... I'll think about it today...
thanks man.
And yes... I guess there was a little too much power for that spur

The motor is probably on its way out already by the sounds of it- ccneu 1518 would be a beaut on 16-18 nimhs or 5-6s lipo (5s to let the esc breath maybe...)- order it now while oits still pn sale- ~$157 dollars + shipping is a bargain, wont see that kind of deal very often.

Yeah... it sounds that way

... I'm on the site now contemplating the buy... $157 does sound like a good deal... thanks for the advice man.
