How many: Chargers and lipos..
Im kinda wanting to know what is the average for one guy to bring to the track as far as Lipos and chargers goes. I have seen a wide variety of setups, but and am wanting to know what is working best for you!

I run 3 classes normaly (sometimes 4). I bring 2 chargers and 1 lipo for each car/truck. I have more but they're not all the same brand or weight, so I like to run the same pack every time in each car. Keeps the different weight lipos from affecting my set-ups.

I normally have 4 electrics to run on a raceday. 2 for my son, and 2 for me.
My setup is 2 lipos per car, and 2 chargers. I normally run 1 heat and then top up the battery for the next heat. And then for the final I use a fresh battery. We only run 3 races per class.

I use two Hyperion Duo chargers. I have 2 packs for my 2wd, 2 packs for my 1/8th E and 2 packs for my 4wd. My kids have 1 pack each for their two Slashes.
In total;
2 chargers (charge 2 packs each)
8 batteries
4 classes and 2 trucks in the same class.
5 vehicles

Two cars, two chargers, and four lipos. Two of the four run in series in a 9e, so really I get three runs without charging. I try to run the series setup first because it ties up both my chargers to get them back, meanwhile I have two other packs to run while that is happening.

Usually my Slash and 2 batteries. I just recently picked up another, so now it'll be three. I also have my nitro buggy, so the LiPo's will last me for sure, now. oh, and one charger.
