FYI, Scotty talked to and had the World GT Car manufacturers as a group come up with most of the rules.
Scotty and the car manufacturers wanted the first WGT race to be a sucess so everyone wanted to run KNOWN power systems from current 1/12th cars. I think most of the WGT cars can be fitted with 3200-5000mah lipos in a single (3.7v) or 2 cell (7.4v) configuration. Unfortunatly, before the IIC there was not enough Lipo testing to know what was up.
I know guys are running Lipo 21.5, 17.5 and 13.5 now. Speak up and let us know what you are seeing and we can talk about the rules and move forward
