What ESC do you have?
Do you have a LiPO charger?
Comping or running for fun?

For fun. Just racing friends on setup tracks. Gonna have to buy a lipo charger. And my setup for my car thats being built for speed is a mamba max pro esc and the 9000kv motor.

Based on this.... http://www.castlecreations.com/suppo...-advisory.html looks like you want a 2S LiPO. Maybe a 2000mah size for run time.

I ran a 3S 1350mah LiPO with a CC MM in a dual motor crawler (2.2 Bully, 40T brushed) and could get ~12 minutes+ from a pack.

The same pack for you would run longer (1 less motor).

I only buy from CheapBatteryPacks.com.

Hope this helps.

Another option would be a zippy, or gens ace lipo. They both offer a ton of batteries and chargers for cheap. I have both in my honcho and all of my 10th race cars. I use the 5000 mah versions. My SC 10 has a 8.5 turn brushless motor and bashing will run for 25 minutes.
