Default Team Orion Drift Machine ESC

Hi guys,
I've bought the Team Orion Drift Machine 18T brushed motor, these are the specifications:

Armature: Stage 1, 4mm Machine
Wind: 18x3
RPM: 26,650+
Power: 133.9W+
Endbell: TOP V2 adjustable timing
Can: TOP Chrome w/ G13 Mags

The question is: why my ESC doesn't handle it for more than five minutes?
The ESC is a bit old, but it can handle 140A continuously... according to the datasheet.
Previously I used a 14T modified motor....

19T is on a TL-01.
And yes, the ESC is over heating (I suppose) and cuts...
