I expect to see the same in car packs. I also expect to see companies lie about capacity and C ratings as they have been doing in the air packs.

I have been in this hobby for 25+ years and there has always been "battery wars", it won't end any time soon.
I voted for the Lipo fans on rcrcr.
I may be a Lipo fan someday....lol, but I got those 3600 Elite NiMh packs and they are what they say they are better than the 3800 IB cells.
But I dont like the IB's because people in japan have defintly
had "BLOW UP" issues with the new 4600 IB cells.
But you and Robbie and I shouldnt have to worry about that...
I just hope Chris doesnt go Lipo, he shouldnt, but we'll see April 12th...lol
I cannot wait to hit those tripples with this car.
Maybe he can go to Albion next week I do plan on going so mark me down please.
