Maxamps don't count in my (and many other's) book and all and I mean all Maxamps don't even come close to what they're rated for. My packs have seen upwards of 180A+, I will also have 30C and 35C packs on the way and it should be fine. Most of the higher quality cells that I use are good for bursts of over 200A and for the few seconds that will only be needed for the speed runs everything will be fine.
