RcMonk - good luck tomorrow..I can't wait to hear what you say about the cells.

Ray - Very cool about your speed with the omega's. What car/motor/gearing where you using. I'm trying to figure out a setup for my RC12L3 with Omega's. I'll be running mod, 9-10 doubles.

Ray

Received my packs yesterday, will build today and prep for tommorrow's racing. Love the fast shipping, keep up the good service!

Question for Dan, John or Jimmy:

I was working on my car last night, when I noticed that the selecter switch on my orion discharger was set at 30 amps @ 4.8 volts! Did I take my packs down too low? Should I be worried, or do you guys think I'll be alright? Should I run a charge tonight, and discharge to the proper voltage? Any help is appreciated.

Yeah, that is kind of low. You might want to charge it back up and do another discharge once it cools down and let it rest. Glad you like our service. If you're going to the Toyota/Lexus race, drop by and say "hi" and bring me some of pastries from PHX. haha!

Dan
Take care bro!

Toyota or Lexus bodies only. I think there's going to be a lot of people bringing things like celicas and supras, but race time, there's going to be a lot of Losi Lexus bodies out there.
