For 1/10 touring car racing, both stock and modified, which Lipo brands and capacity are you using?

I’m racing both 25.5t indoor and 17.5t outdoor, and am thinking of using the LRP HV super stock 6100, curious if anyone has experience with those.
I also believe that I can only charge them on a standard lipo setting (7.6v) but due to HV, I may have over charge to avoid a drop off before the race, and with only going to 7.6cv, an HV lipo should last a little longer.

Other brands I looked at were:

- Team EAM (seems very temperamental around heat)
- Cayote - (was told they would be suitable with low enough UR for 25.5t by online store)
- ORCA
- Nosram
- Gens Ace Redline

Curious what you’re using, why you choose them, how power output is across the entire race length, and if high c rating really makes a difference?

I’m aware for stock racing if I choose to use higher Amp charging/discharging will shorten the lifespan of the cells. I can purchase more, but curious on your thoughts overall.

Cheers
