If you are only getting to 240 when running hard then that is not a problem at all. That is a real good temp. As long as you stay below around 270F you are good to go. If you power is good and the temps are what you say then you are golden. Oh yeah and welcome to RCNT!!!

ok thanks and yea i have the big red mach .28 on my nitro thunder quake the bad thing it they dont make parts anymore and i can't get realy any unless i have it on the other 1 i got and i got a hyper 7 i am trying to get a motor for

For the Hyper 7 I would recommend getting a good .21-.25. They are better on top end and buggies do not need all the crazy torque a .28 puts out. Yeah swapping engines back and forth can be a pain...

Wheel spin in dirt causes the engine to rev higher, thus creating the extra heat. As long as the plug is not distorted and the piston has no detonation marks on it, your tune is fine.
