Default Can we seal the ESC to make it waterproof?

Guys,
How heavy duty is our mini losi DT? Yesterday I was running it on the street where there was some water. It was going but once it hit to somthing, and rightaway it stopped. I checked no burning no nothing even the servo was not working. I saw the water is little bit on the chasis. I tried a to start up at home but no but was sure that water may entered the ESC board. THen the whole night I kept it in front of heater, and finally it ran again; I don't know it will run same as before.
Can we seal the ESC so it can run through water. I 'm not saying I would but if there is a lillle water that can't be avoided.
