Questions??

But 5000 40C batteries will re-stocked again in market?
In fact i run 13.5T in 8min race.

I saw in photos of Snowbirds, all TP batteries of drivers using in any class are just 50C.

Best regards

Thunderpower will continue the 40c line. all the TP packs that i have run perform really well. maybe with the new speedos the guys are liking the 50c's across the board now. ? i have not yet re tested with all of that.

I can help with this too as Paul and I are team mates at Thunder Power.

I only ran 50C packs in Mod, which is basically a must have for Modified classes.

I used 40C packs in both 13.5 Touring Car and 10.5 12th Scale. While you'd think the 50C would be an advantage over a 40C in any case... I don't think that's true. The 40C packs felt a little better in the spec style classes. Almost as if there was a little more bottom end. Motors also ran a little cooler as well. I know that's a little hard to believe, but it's true.

And yes Dorian, it's messed up, but TRUE!

Paul, if at any time you feel threatened by Schreff I can kick him out for you. All you have to do is say the word.

Paulie threatened by me? Maybe only at the dinner table... but we haven't had that battle... YET. And if I bring "The Goat", we're all done for.

Paul,
I was wondering if a 3mm right hand nitrite rotating shaft attached to a left hand Teflon coated rotating hub, cause too much kinetic energy rotational dissipation in the structural molecular composition of the main power source heat build up?

Hi, on my 09 i did use the forward motor mount some times. on the good side it makes the car smoother and easier to drive, on the bad side the car always pushed more and the lap times were never really faster. but i did run it a lot.
