From the current ROAR rules:

"8.3.2.5.3 Li-Poly battery maximum charge rate shall be 1C. C= charge amp rate. Charge amp rate = mAh capacity/1000=XAmps"

One way to enforce this would be to have a charging table in tech, where the batteries are monitored. I have not heard that it has yet happened.

As far as I know, the USGT rules do not have this requirement.
