either motor or speed controlled is bummed and busted. I know cuz i had to replace my stock motor. next time when you run it, stop at 5 minute intervals and check for signs of overheating. When my motor died, i could steer but couldn't move. OH WELL, I HAD TO PAY AND NOW IM BROKE!!

What were the outside temperatures where your running? Pretty hot?
Theres a good chance it might have overheated and fried something in the ESC. If it doesnt work after re-programming then something is wrong. Give Traxxas a call and see if they can help you.

i know you may have already tried this but I thought I would mention it anyway. Try checking the throttle trim setting on your transmitter if its not set to 0 the truck won't move. My brother had the same problem and he felt kinda silly after. If that doesn't work try resetting the trim position. It tells you how in your manual.
