So after it caught on on TC, lots of people do it in off road now (more so in 2wd) But they do it in 4wd also

So I guess the same thing could apply with a MT
Maybe for racing, but I would never go back to 3s, the added heat and power loss is not worth it. I am actually getting sick of 4s, 5s is so much better. Personally battery technology needs to get alot better before lower voltage systems will work, and then hv will still be better! More voltage and less current is just plain better. I know that it can get to a point where there is too much power, but that is where diver skill comes in. Being able to out power a competitor (with the same driving skill) may just win you a race!
