wish there were A123 that are smaller/lighter as 6S2P is huge and heavy (heavier than lipo) for use in my maxx

I have been racing electrics with nitro's for about 7 years, thats what happens when you are the only electric in 50 miles. I raced brushed with a 5 minute heat, we never had enough to pit so the small heats work for everyone. Most of the time i felt like Gen. Custer in a field of indians, I have had everything form derogatory remarks to people unplugging and catching the cords of the chargers to keep me from racing (I guess they didn't want the truth to come out). over time i got acceptance, but still kind of an outsider in the races. I am trying to help electric by running my brushless stuff as much as i can.

That is just a disgrace. I can't beleive people would go out of their way to do something like that or do it at all... everyone is just out there to enjoy themselves and have fun IMO.

I know If ANYONE, No matter how much of a spender/buddy of the owner of my track

If I went and told him, that guy would have his ace kicked out so fast it wouldnt be funny

That is pathetic.... They cant tke some competition, Like brian said, they arent forced to run nitro....

I think that if they were repackaged to be like lipos and remove the metal casing, they would be a lot lighter. Probably still a bit heavier than lipos, but not as bad...
