It's probably a combination of Battery current drain, ESC max surge and motor stall characteristics.

I'm sure a hot motor can be used if the stall current is low for his application.
Probably because the gears on rc car is much simpler, light weight chassis & almost zero chance to stall. I've never experience brown-out issue before though, in rc stuff. If I did, I would fallback to NiCD battery because it was design for heavy duty job. I mean cordless power drill also use NiCD battery.




@nexusys, you said "new high torque gears". Can you post a picture of that gears? It's not the HL Ultimate Edition II gb, is it?
