The funny thing is that it's not that much slower on a tight track (mod brushless). The speed at the end of the straight is about the same but it doesn't have the rip in the infield. It was easier in the tires, speedo and motor but a lot harder on the batteries. For LiPo you'll need a single cell cutoff so that you don'tover discharge.

If the cells had the same capacity it might even bring back some of the old school driving. You might not be able to run flat out for the entire run anymore.
