Basically, I just need the info requested in that thread. With all the data, I want to do the following:

- Calculate estimated burst current based on reported runtime on specific battery type/size, truck type, top speed (which auto factors gearing, tranny, tire size), and weight. 6x-7x average amperage multiplier seems to be pretty good for a ball park figure, but I'm sure it will vary depending on the above factors.

- Calculate mimumum lipo specs (mostly C rating) based on the estimated burst current so people can choose a lipo setup that won't be overloaded.

- I'll probably also throw together a section (or even a seperate page) where the user can enter their current runtime and battery specs, then enter desired runtime, and the script will calculate the needed battery.
