[QUOTE=lincpimp;266433]Good advice...

Zippys are compareable to maxamps (performace, not price).

with all due respect i dont think that is an accurate statement. myself and many of my racing buddies have had maxamps packs and now zippy 4s 5000 h and r packs in our 1/8 scale racing buggys.
i can tell you that the zippy packs are much better at holding voltage under load and producing power. the guys i am speaking of have raced 1/8 buggys going on 3+ years in southeast michigan so we have a lot of time on them.
also many of these guys have the higher end enerland based packs as well and they say that those packs may stay in balance a little better if ran down close to dumping. but for twice as much money i guess they should.
