How many of these 24v 1400w systems will your race facility's 15A electric services going to support? Voltage will have to go up to keep the current down.

Track will have to increase the size of there circuit breakers.
Lipos batteries are getting better all the time.

20 amp charging is good to get the benefits of lower IR but
if time is a issue then 40 amps are fine.

If the lipo sits for a time and gets cold then discharge and charge at 20 or more.
