27t stock motor and 7.2v don't make for a very fast car. I know I could outrun it on foot without issues.
Something isn't normal. A well geared stock motor and proper batteries and that TC3 should be in the 25-30MPH range.
a few things to look at:
reset speed control
cycle the batteries
is something binding? Check the pinion/spur gear mesh
bearings rusted?
Take the pinion off of the motor. The car should roll a long way on the ground with a slight push
