actually the motor has bolted endbells so im nto owrried of that. i was going to run atleast one fan, possibly two. and teh vxl makes more power than a mamba max so i was thinking it would give me a little extra umph. it isnt an XL motor, but it is considered an L motor. i was planning on running 16/38 with the close internal ratio and 2 speed. i wasnt expecting speeds to be over 35-40

That gearing will give you around 30mph with the close ratio gearset. The vxl esc is not better then the MM. I have owned both and do not think the vxl esc is better. It has no pc programibility and runs warmer then the MM. It is also not as smooth either. The batteries will determine how much power you will have. The motor will draw as much as it can (till it overheats) that is why gearing correctly is important. If you can buy the mm I would suggest it over the vxl. I have 7 MM escs and have been very happy with them (pity the Mamba motors are not that good). You will have to run some sort of heatsink on the ammo motor, even a clip on heatsink will be better than nothing. A fan will help the esc, may not be necessary for the motor.
