Wow man thank god you are here, seriously, thank you for explaining this. let's rap this up
So it's a great package to run and it will produce how much continuous amps ? 160 amp or 125 ? or 128 20c + 64amp x 2 =128 .. which is plenty for a 2200-2383 KV to provide speeds above 55mph on a less than 10lb car ? ?

So now it's a matter of deciding on

Two packs of 5s 2500 at 30c 70amp = 5s 5000mah 140amp
or
Two packs 5s 3200 at 20c 64amp = 5s 6400mah 128amp

What amperage is good ?
does the 140 give more available power or speed and cooler temps but less run time than the 6400 ? ?
or is the 6500 128a plenty of needed power for motors and cool temps ?

The 3200 packs are actually 25c, the pic is wrong. So they would be good for 160 amps cont if you run 2 5s packs in parallel. If I were you I would get the 3200 packs. Longer runtimes, more amp capability and the price is not much different.

125 amp capable 5s lipo is good for just about anything up to 8th scale geared for less than 50mph. ( I have figured this with multiple setups in dozens of vehicles) Neu lipos are good for their rated specs, unlike other brands.
