Battery suggestion for vxl

I got my vxl a few weeks ago and what a difference, i went from 6 to 7 cell nimh packs its awsome. I want to make the jump to lipo but I remember hearing form some that I have to have a min amp rating between the c rating and the mah rating? For a 20C battery what would be the lowest mah you can run on the VXL?

20c 3000mah would be the lowest you could run IMO.

a 5000mah 20c would be wiser, there's some great deals on those from hobbyking with hardcase's.

We have packs designed just for the VXL vehicles. The wires are the correct length and exit the pack in the right place. They also come with the correct Traxxas connector.
