50C Lipo = Better for MOD Racing
40C Lipo = Better For High Turn Motor
13.5, 17.5, 21.5 = All this motor is not capable of pulling high AMP continously so there is no point on getting a high C rating batteries if you are just running high turn brushless motor.

It's not the batteries won the race it's the Black Diamond Speedcontrol...

There's no need to switch to 50c batteries for stock or superstock - 40C is more than adequate.

The difference people are seeing between different C ratings has nothing to do with coming close to the amp draw capacity of the pack. A higher C rating will allow the pack to maintain its voltage under load. Whatever that load may be, a pack with a higher C rating "should" be able to maintain a higher voltage.
Now of course, this difference may be very small. Maybe so small that not even a pro will feel the difference. But trust me, the pro's are labeling packs with average discharge voltage and internal resistance and using the best packs for big races. Don't forget, this is racing. The idea that you may have left anything in the pits is not the goal.
And even if you are racing mod, which I do, you don't need any more power!

I have no real data to support this but; I would suspect that tha small power gain of the 50c would be negated by its slightly higher weight. So all in all I would guess that there is little or no difference in the 13.5+ motors, mod if you need more power you just motor up as allways.

well, you could go by the advice you so readily hand out all the time in other peoples threads! Go to your local track and ask the people that have been racing a long time instead of posting a stupid question like that here! i have seen you post that response more than a few times before......
