Any body running a 5 cell stock class ?

A great transition class before running 4 cell 19 .

Some tracks are calling it their Pro-stock class.

:woohoo:

Might as well run 6-cell silver can motors....

Or if you are dead serious about 5-cell, switch to A123 cells. At least it is still a Lithium battery, not a sucky NiMH

I didn't realize that the rest of the world was all Lipo's and all brushless ??

I wonder why my nimh battery supplier is always sold out of his top racer

packs .:rolleyes::confused::thumbsup:

Ok, you win....you can have your 5100's from Orion and keep running a brushed motor.

Brushed racing will not die off. There will be some brushed events only just like there are some brushless only events.

Those old 'coons still like to climb trees and some racers will always want to work on a motor.

Lipo wont catch on until you see the big guys run it.

As for 5 cell stock? I didn't really think stock was run anymore. Be the first in VT, and you will just be ahead of the curve.

I tried to head him off quick and tell him about lithium...

But good news for those NiMH's, Orion will release a 5100 battery. But I think that battery is more of a "Sport" cell and not like their 4200 SHO with higher voltage.

some just refuse to move foreward, been that way for years at that track.
