Robitronic LIPOshttp://www.redrc.net/2009/04/robitronic-efra-brca-legal-lipo-packs/robitronic have got some BRCA legal lipos coming, which are 5000 capacity, and 40C rating, for all the extra punch you need in stock and pro-stock classes... im thinkin some of you may be buying them before brooklands? |

well, its only in stock racing that you'll need the extra oomf!
in 6.5 you'll overheat before you can reap the benefits of more powerful cells... there is still at least some limit on the power, if i remember rightly, Paul pointed out that a mix of the capacity and C rating determines ur power output - and if the stcc continues to limit battery capacity to 5000 then the performance will be pretty level... OR for outright performance at its peak, apparently Ener-G 4600 and YungTong 4300 cells are the way to go still! |

Oh GOD he is still saying QUOTE " SPX BABY " I still have it ringing in my ears and its been nearly a week 
As far as the Lipos go YES it looks like its going the same way as the old cells used to be, Who has the most money will have the most punch .......... |

go mod then trev, like i said, the car will thermal before you can use the extra power...
or you can do what ricky copsey had a habit of doing last year, and turn off the thermal cut off, and blow up several motors in the process
