Amen glassdoctor, sign me up

The problem i see is the power and light weight, Explosions are a non issue because of bunkers and bags for charging. I had one of my 4.4k's explode lately (didn't talk about it because i didn't want to put Austin in a bad light), but the point is that we have become complacent with NIMH/CD batteries because most have no trouble and don't see it. I have been hearing about batteries exploding and venting at major races (check the rumor mill in the latest XRC mag.) because people are charging at ludicrous amps and shorting for lower resistance. The point is every battery will blow if treated improperly. this is a money issue and the elite will win because they get their batteries free due to sponsorship. I'm glad i don't race professionally, may do the rc pro series but it will be for fun.
