Also I got in to a whole bunch of brand new unnassebled reedy real time 3300 matched packs. I think they have been sitting for a cuople of years. They all false peaked every 200milliamps 5-6 times and then took a full charge fine. Is this normal for 3300s?
I'd also say you are rolled-out WAY big for brushed stock if 64.5mm is your tire size and not a typo. Did you mean 46.5? With the info you've given you're at 64mm roll-out which is headed into brushless territory and even then only with 4200's. On our club track (40 X 65 with 8-10' lanes) I roll my Stocks out in the 45-50mm range depending on layout. I'm not particularly aggressive on roll-out but 64mm on 3300 cells is WAY too high for any layout I've ever seen.

Double-check your tire diameter--TC tires are in the mid-high 50's. 1/12 tires are generally in the mid-high 40's. I don't think I've even seen DONUTS that were 64mm.
