i also have a castle sidewinder 5700kv combo.
castle recommends not running 3s with the 5700kv, and only run 2s. lipo.
i use a IP5000 30c 2s lipo with my car, with the power set to medium.
i get plenty of speed and accelleration for track use, and long run times.
best setup imo is 2s, 5000mah 40c lipo from thunder power.(more current...)
otherwise you current cetup is fine, just dont overgear.

What kind of batteries are you guys running in your castle setups?
I'm in the market for a few extra packs of batteries and was wondering what other people like to use.
I'm not sure what is the minimum or the best power requirements for the castle setup. Anyone have an idea?
Right now I'm running a sidewinder 5700 on a Tamiya chassis. Using 2s 30c 5000 lipos.
