Are the Nosram packs possibly the same as one of the other mentioned packs? If so, since they mostly appear to be coming from the same factories, Scotty may allow it. That would obviously be up to him, but he would probably understand the fact you may not have those mentioned cells readily available to you.

Do we have to pre-register for the gokart stuff on monday or is it just show up and pay your money? I didn't see anything on the entry form

Yeti you got rain tires for this weekend? may be boat racing on the outdoor course

The rules say hard cased LiPo so if the Nosram is hard cased I don't see why you can't run it. If you are stuck and can't legally run them we can probably set you up with a couple of Reedy rental packs.

This race is not ROAR sanctioned so the rules are up to the organizer. Rules can suck but without rules it would not be a sport. Instead it would be nothing more than organized bashing.

it is hard case, and the add say "Race legal (complying to ROAR / EFRA rules)"

The blue version from LRP is on the EFRA list, but not the red i now it
is the same battery but a different colour, it ma have the same order #

http://www.nosram.com/en/products/ba...c-74v/details/

Lipo from USA is hard to get many web shops don't ship lipo in the mail
and it will go by boat, and will take three month to get it.

Thanks

But then I will need the battery ASAP since I will have to start to make a
car for It and test It.

agreed rules are need In many area, but som things don't need
rules we have no body shell rules for 12 scale in Norway, you can
run what you purchase this rule Is working fine for us.

That is a 7.4v 2 cell saddle pack for B44 style offroad vehicles. You will need to get a 1 cell lipo for 12th scale like the one below.

I'm wondering if we could run one cell of the two? I'll split a pack with ya. it's only 20C though. They are $80 at tower and if you use a $10 off over 49.99 it's $70 and if we split one it would be $35 for a 1c pack. or I could run WGT with the other 1 cell hmmm...
