Race Formula packs come from what I believe to be the best Lipo factory based on the testing I have done. The result is better performance.

There is to many racers/customers who think a Lipo is a Lipo so by giving our lowest IR packs the name Race Formula this helps the customer understand these have the best performance.

We currently have the 7200-70C with 4mm inboard tubes in stock.

On Friday we're getting some out of spec 7200s. These have 200-300mAh less but the IR and voltage is every bit as good.

Hey Danny,

Instead of me buying from the current Canada dealer(due to the 20 higher in price) could I buy directly from you guys instead?

Danny/SMC 06-11-2013 08:29 PM

The price will be adjusted in Canada once more of these packs are available.

You can order from us but shipping via UPS will be around 25.00 dollars. UPS will then charge you 19.00 dollars for brokerage fees and you will need to pay duty and taxes.

If you want to do it this way email me.

Do I just email you via the email on the website?

You can email me at [email protected] or off the site.

WOW ! Noticed the 4s packs were back in stock last night and I bought 3 , went back to get a couple more and they are out of stock again ! Glad I got my order in , got confirmation they are shipping today ! Hope they are as good as people say .......

You guys at smc are awesome I ordered my batts Sunday night and they arrived at 2 today that's what I call service.

Danny/SMC 06-12-2013 04:50 PM

Glad to hear that. Wish we could always process orders the same day but sometimes we get behind when we have many pre-orders. Very time consuming to test each pack prior to shipping.

Danny, any idea when this battery might come in?

Race Formula 14.8V 6500mAh 70C

Danny/SMC 06-12-2013 05:32 PM

First week of July.

Markcuda 06-12-2013 05:38 PM

OK, thank you.
