What kind of motors and racing does it make a difference what type of 7.4volt Lipo battery I use?
I'm assuming here and please correct me:
Any motor near a stock motor, like a 21.5 brushless or a 17.5 or brushed 27T a specific Lipo can make a difference in lap times
Running a 19 Turn, or a 13.5 what specific Lipo you run might make a difference in lap times to put you ahead of other racers.
Anything under a 19 turned brushed or a 13.5 brushless a battery isn't going to make a difference?
When I say "make a difference" I mean an intermediate racer who isn't getting marshalled much and can run a relatively good line and can tune their vehicle to be competive with the majority of racers at their club.
I don't mean:
Any of the top 200 racers in the US.
