Thanks! I definitely like 1/8th buggies. Bashing or racing I think they're great vehicles.

Not much experience with them yet, but after two 5 min. qualifiers and a 7 min. main (with re-peaks between) the battery stayed very very cool and had a ton of power. After the main I was playing on the track and learned I could easily make the back triple which very few cars can do.. and even triple the first 3 whoops which I not a single other car was attempting. The point is - lots of performance so far. I'll hopefully be using this battery for racing 2-4 times a month.. and I'll definitely keep everyone updated on it since they're fairly new to the community.

Is the 8XL C can the same KV as the regular 8XL?

As far as I know the only difference between is the fins on the can. Same rotor, windings, magnets, etc. I'd ask someone with more experience for the final say - but as far as I know that's the case.

Yes. Fiego, Wanderer, Nemesis all use the same internals.
