if your charger can charge nimh batteries go to radioshack and buy a GP3300 stick pack. it is only $25, and the rc branded stick packs with the same cells cost $10 more and they are exactly the same. so i would reccomend going to radioshack and picking up a pack or 2
here is a link http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2147160&cp=2032056.2818124.2818347&parentPage=family

under the heading "other ways to get it" go to the store finder and enter your zipcode and it will tell you where the closest radioshack carrying it is. even the small radioshack in cambridge carries a good stock of them. i ran these packs in my xxx-t with a mamba max brushless system with a 4600KV motor. but make sure your charger says it is made to charge nimh packs. the rtr charger from the wheely king will not work. i reccomend http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2147160&cp=2032056.2818124.2818347&parentPage=family at least, or http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXUF45&P=7 which is alot better for $10 more. have fun with your stampede
