I ran 10.52 with my 1 year old 38's with no cycles on them when I first came back and my best with 42's was 10.42. 38's are pretty fast still. Gearing and like always good driving will take care of the rest. Don't let that scare you. The hobby will always need batteries to make are stuff go and no matter what you race some guys will have better stuff than others and that goes for me as well.
Just pick a class and work you goal of getting what you need to race. Most guys won't tell really top packs unless they can run consistantly smooth to even see any benefits of a better pack. To be honest I can't tell the differance between a 1.23 pack to a 1.25 pack. My 38's at best where 1.20 when I came back a few weeks ago.

Would be cool to see the smoke coming out of the car before it has lift off and goes thru the wall into the hobbyshop area.

Even though I really don't see the point. I'm having more fun running 25-26 laps with my year old motors. Plus I finally got a new car that I'm bringing to the track Saturday.
