Why is 3600mah ok? that makes an unfair advantage over guys who only run 3300mah do to rules or ROAR and IFMAR Cause 3600 give you longer runtime and more punch over 3300. SO why isnt that restricted in the rules?

You can make that argument for any cells. Why are 3300 legal when some guys might have 3000 cells. 3300 will have longer runtime and punch over 3000 cells.

3600, 3700, and 3800 will all be legal within this year. So when they are approved, there will be no problem. There's no point of restricting us from having the latest technology, when we will be using that same technology at any other track or race this year.

If someone wants to blame their lose on not having 3600 cells, then they certainly didn't have a good enough car to notice the difference between cells.

So you saying a heavier car cant beat a lighter car ? same principle...it all comes down to driver ability to control the car and not the car itself

It's easier to setup a light car. A light car transitions faster.

Better batteries give you more power. No effect on handling.

Having a car that can turn faster due to being abnormally light is completely different from having a car that can gain a foot per straight on the next car b/c it has better batteries.

Not really....but no matter what....it still comes down to the driver himself and nothing to due with how the car is setup or what you have on it Chad im not trying to be an A** but im just trying ot get all the info about the race i can before i come. I dont want ot be a lone racer if you know what I mean...Like you saw at our track we help all and answer anything someone ask. I just want to know why somethings are the way they are. Im still gonna have fun either way cause thats what RC is about. SO dont think im a A**hole or something else bad. things are still all good...

hahah, i never thought you were an A**. I know I asked a good number of questions before I came down to your track.

As you can see, we are more than willing to answer any questions anyone has. I even gave a FAST setup to a competitor that will run a Pro 4 (probably a bad idea )
