Lipo is good for practice as long as you add weight for balance. Some clubs still don't allow LIPO for racing so you might want to check your local track for rules before buying your equipment.
The primary club I race at does allow LiPos in competition, so I'm not worried about that. Is there a disadvantage to using them over NiMhs?
