Ron got it right. I ran the Losi 5000mah 20c pack in my Rubber car all day and the 4400mah 30c packs in my foam car. As you saw, the foam car was NOT lacking HP. I did nothing special either. I took the packs out the car each run and charged them back up @ 5 amps. I was not "heating" the packs or balancing. They took an average of 1800mah of charge each time as well after a foam tire run in 13.5 @ 360 Raceway.
You will not be disappointed if you try the Losi 4400mah 30c packs. Heck, Larry ran one that didn't fully charge for the last round of qualifying in foam and hot lapped both me and Mike Haynes. Bastard.
