Update:
Just wanted to let everyone know that my Gen Ace 40C 5000 pack has gotten much better. I have about 20 cycles on it now and it is giving me good numbers. Better than I expected given what the cells were reading when I first got it. Run time is good. Punch has been getting better. But the real news is that that internal resistance is coming in at 1 - 2 ohms every charge now. 
So for the money it is working very well.

Gens Ace 5000 4S in stock at HobbyPartz
Just got 8 of these Gens Ace 5000 4S LiPos from HobbyPartz. Ordered them a week ago and got an out of stock notice but I told them to just ship them when they got in. Guess they must have gotten a shipment cause all 8 came in a big box today.

Hmmm. Currently I'm using 5000 40c 2s packs, I have 3 of these. I would consider selling them to go for one of those above. But which one? I currently run 17.5 boosted TC, and the 5000 I have do go slightly soft towards the end of the run... Would the 5800 45c be a better choice or the 5000 65c? When are the new packs due? And what price should they be going for?
Weight isn't much of an issue, I have to add 20-30g weight to the car battery side anyway.

I give up on these batteries. Price is always good however support and supply have to count as well.
I will get my next battery from my local hobby shop to keep them alive and know the support is there if I need it.

Yesterday, my first race with the gens ace 5000 50c packs.
The batteries gave me a lot of punch, there wasn't any difference with my expansive packs (orion).
Too bad my driving wasn't so good
.
For me from now on, only gens ace batteries.
