You have to take at least 3 pits in a 30minute anyway so just make 1 pit for a battery swap and call it a day. Most all clubs allow this w/o issues. As brushless setups warrant full classes you will find they split the a-main into two 12minute or two 15minute instead of 1 long race so I wouldn't go too crazy w/ setups and purchases unless money is no object :)
I tried to plan n trial run both my 1600kv n 2000kv medusa motors with 6s 5000 with pinions from 12 to 16, very close to 30mins but can't.

The speed is less than 35mph in main, at heat is worse as pinion is 17 on 4s.

Either it's too straining in heats or too slow in main, unless I do a motor swap.
