It is VERY important that any Lipo you intend to use at this event only be a 2-cell Lipo. Anything over that will not be allowed. If you run an unapproved Lipo battery that does meet the standards we have posted, the truck it runs in will be DQ'd for the class it is racing in. Safety is paramount and we will not budge on that.
