Thank you for all the help & Tips
I don't think I am going to race this weekend thou... They are predicting 99 degrees with heat indexes of 101 - 104 degrees in the Lehigh Valley area
Not going to risk puffing my Lipos or damage to my motor / esc
I'll be in my in ground pool & inside a nice central A/C cooled house
GOOD LUCK to any RACER BRAVING THAT kind of heat GOD BLESS YOUR RIDES TOO...
I thought of doing that too. However then I thought, what do the guys in the lower states do. They have to be used to running in 100 degree weather. Plus, I'm dying to run my new truggy. So I spoke with Jim Roe at Promatch Batteries. Back in my prime I was one of his drivers, lol were talking NiCd's. He is based in AZ so I figured he has to know something about running in the heat. He said the best thing you can do for your lipo packs is get a cooler. Use Ice packs, not ice, and store your packs in the cooler when not in use. So I'll be doing that and bringing an extra fan to cool my esc and motor.
