What HV system are you running?

The Maxamps 3000 cells (which are used in the 6K pack) are not 20C cells. They are more like 10 or 12C cells.

In otherwords, when compared to the new Maxamps 5k cells, or the Maxamps 4K cells, the 6K's actually have pretty poor performance.

I have the 8K packs (2P 4K cells) and they are absolutely awesome on my HV-Maxx system.

Flightpowers/Trackpowers/enerland cells are supposed to be the best from what I have heard. Though I don't think you can take much advantage of them unless you had a very powerful motor system. The HV seems to be quite easy when it comes to power draw so I dont think it needs Flightpowers.

Edit: For diffs, I would get some 1/8 scale diffs. If you can, return the Hardcore Bulks and get some FLM Hybrids. They allow the use of 1/8 scale diffs (which are much stronger than any traditional style maxx diff). This also allows you to play around with Torsen diffs (if you choose so, but they are kind of steep at 120 per diff).
