I'm running the Medusa 36-50-4800-5mm on 2s and love it. Gearing for mid-upper 30's it handles it without a problem. I use a 15t ( for some reason on other posts I beleive I may have been saying 19t but it's a 15) with stock tires and I have an 11t I use for running some bigger slash tires. I'm running MA 6000mah 2s packs and get 20-25 minutes of mostly full speed runs. After the first pack I do need to let it cool a little, motor is fine at 125* but esc gets a bit warmer, around 170* after a long hard run. I'm running a MM with no mods, no fan, and using the internal BEC.

I'm a bit surprised that your MM is heating up with just a 15T on stock buggy tires. The rule of thumb is (Hot ESC and Batteries + Cool motor = Overgeared). How's your battery temp?

I run my E-CRT.5 with Novak GTB & 6.5 setup at our local indoor track and my buds large back yard track. I definitely pull a good bit of throttle throughout the track, but not the same as WOT speed runs. Mine can get hot when it's over 90 degrees outside and I run the 2.2 truck tires with the 13T pinion, but otherwise it runs great. I'm certain I don't have nearly the torque that the Medusa has, so I'd expect the Medusa to pull that 15T easily.
