Whats wrong with buying legal batteries if you want to race?
There is no weight limit mentioned in the rules.

LiPos taken as a pack are the same dimension (smaller actually) than a NiMH pack.

The rules mention no capacity limits.

They are the wrong voltage. I will give you that.

They can't be submitted as there are no rules for them.

And speaking of rules, which rules are you speaking of. Most club races and many of the larger races (next week's IIC for example) do not follow ROAR battery rules. There is nop reason why these races (like the KO GP), ould not allow LiPos to race against other "illegal" batteries.

In my opinion, batteries are legal, or they are not.
