a local indoor offroad track is letting 1/8 run on a tight track but is limiting voltage to 2s, so i was thinking of trying one of the new ballistic 550's in a rc8 to try to compensate, would this work?

From our testing the Ballistic 550s work great in 1:8 scale on a tight track on 2S with a standard 1/10 controller.
