I raced my 12th scale with 4 cell NiMH and saw the 1S lipos guys being too light. I saw traction rolls and also a guy hit my car twice and suffered greatly. He blamed me for it of course (Track owner lol). The lipos are great as it provides the run time and punch doesn't fade away like the NiMH's does as I was just slowing down as the last few laps went by. I'm thinking of getting a few LifePO4 cells that are the same size as a SUB-C and run a 2S2P configuration. The maker of the cells has said the cells have shown to hold above 3V at close to 20C for the power cells and above 3V at around 10C for the energy cells. At 6V, I think LifePO4 should be a good choice for 12th or 10th scale pan car.
