Default Micro-T w/ Lipo run time?????


I put a Losi Lipo in my Micro-T, and am only getting about 10 min. of run time?? The car is only two days old, and it's my first one, so I'm not sure if this is normal or not???
On the factory battery, I would get about 5 to 7 min. of run time. I bought the Lipo because it touted faster speeds and longer run time, but for four times the cost of the factory battery, although it is a good bit faster, it doesn't seem like much more run time!!
The guys at my LHS said I'd get about 20 to 25 min of run time. I've read posts on this forum and seen other advertisement saying you can get 20 min on a Lipo.
Does my car need adjusting? Is there something wrong with my battery?? What gives here? So far, I'm not too impressed with the Lipo!

Well it all depends on the mah of the lipo you bought. I would say 15-20 of hard running is what I get on a 250mah 2s lipo.

Mine is a Losi factory 180 mah.

So is the 10 min I'm getting about normal for this pack??

I am not sure but judging by the mah over the stock pack I would say yes....it's normal.
