I run 10.5 motors for my Mod stuff and for where I race it's more power than I can use, so having a battery with a huge C rating doesn't help any. If you're only going to run Mod all the brands you listed are fine and anything with a 4000mah/30C rating or higher is going to be fine. I don't run much stock stuff anymore but that's where I noticed a difference with the higher C rating packs. All IMO
