Stock TC on carpet (25.5 / 21.5): EAM 5200 or the new 5400.

Very few people know more about winning stock touring car races than Eric Anderson. The packs consistently have great numbers and hold up very well.
SMC packs are excellent as well.

Getting the pack above 110*F or holding it above 100*F for an excessive amount of time seems to really damage the cells. Find a method that works for you to consistently get the pack to about 100-105 just before your race and you're set. I cycle at 30/30 with a 3 minute delay. If I finish the cycle early, I keep it in a DRC warming sleeve for a few minutes until my race. Ideally you'll have 2 packs per car. 1 to practice with and just kinda keep charging it, and a newer/better one for heats and mains.
