Small track draw less amps vs big track? Is it becoz less full throttle? How long can your 6s 2600 Mah batt last you? 12-15mins? Wats was the per cell voltage remaining?
Yes, much less time at full throttle. My local track has only one long straight where you can get full throttle. I usually have near 3.7v/cell as I have never actually hit the LVC with this car yet.

I have run about 12 to 15 min: 10 min main with a few warm up laps and sometimes a little playing after, still yet to hit the LVC though. After 7 min. qualifier I use 1200 - 1600 mah, 10 min. main uses about 1800 - 2300 mah

Local race series allows any batteries, they do have a 4s limit for the regional series that comes around a couple times a year.

With proper kv motor, it is no different than 4s, except you do get a bit more punch since the voltage drops less under acceleration. Also, everything runs super cool.
