I just wanted to give a small update. I just returned from the ROAR Carpet Nationals where I used the 5000 Pro battery in both the TC Modified and Super Stock (using LRP 10.5) classes. The battery worked great in both classes and powered me to A-main finishes in each.

Even though many LiPo batteries were legal and available for the event, the Reedy battery was the only LiPo used by any driver in the A-main in these two factory supported classes.

Power and run time were excellent. I am confident enough in the performance of the battery that I will never run an NiMH battery as long as LiPo is allowed.

The Reedy team drivers attending the Cactus Classic used the Reedy 5000 in their 2wd buggies and Trucks. Jake Thayer used the Reedy LiPo 5000 in his victory in the SRS Truck (10.5 motor, 15 minutes) class.

Batteries will be shipping this month in large quantities but for those that need them now, Scottsdale R/C (SRS) in Arizona and the Hobbytown USA in Omaha have some left in stock.
