Actually Michael that was never the issue; the "debate" was sparked because Yang decided to call me out after he made the erronious statment that motor for motor is a closer parity than 13.5/lipo and I questioned his statement. For the record I never said thay were even only that the 13.5 is a better option than motor for motor, a point that I was able to back up with Yang's data. But just to put this to bed here it is again point blank. Per Yang's data his 13.5/lipo car was one lap faster than his 17.5/nimh. But per his previous post:

Notice the part I bolded and underlined, Yang was mutiple laps up in a motor for motor run. So as I stated before, and just proved again, the 13.5 lipo car is a closer parity than motor for motor; one lap vs mutiple laps. And to you Yang if your going to throw around insults I suggest that you have the facts to back your position next time.
