The Velcro only will not hold up on some high speed crashes,a properly strapped battery is the way to go.Another thing is once you add Velcro it also increases the battery height about 2-3mm.Personally I would not take the chance with a 120 dollar lipo flopping around on a piece of Velcro..and I know at our local track and I believe ROAR rules state the battery must be strapped
