Default Heat Problems, ouch

Guys, ive been giving quite alot of advice (some good, some bad) in the last few days, but now i need your help.

I am running LRP GT3 17x2 motor, LRP Sprinter ESC (16turn max), deans plugs and Sanyo 2000Mah Nicd batteries.

I have a tamiya Heatsinc on the motor and the sprinter has its own heatsinc, the problem is, the motor is getting so damn hot i cant even touch it, yesterday after two batteries i burt a blister when i touched the chassis under the motor!!!!!!

what could be wrong, ive done everything, taken the heatsinc off and fitting a INTEL pentium 4 CPU fan on the motor, EVERYTHING. what could be wrong? is it the Esc's fault?
