wow this is crazy
 
lol .. I just hooked up a 4s in my truggy box and its unreal .. iv seen 4s's in bump boxes and i knew what it would do but man this is just unreal . over the summer iv had many boxes and used other peoples boxes and this is simply the best i have ever seen . started out with a car battery and then tried some stick packs then got the gel cel and all of them i could stop with a finger and the lipo , nah man my finger aint stopping that

I like to see you stop my Ofna chrome top starter box with your finger using a gel battery. [X(] It has one BIG motor direct drive.

Yeah I was going to say no way anyone can stop my starter box with their finger and my gel cell.

Wouldnt that be overkill? My gel cell is great with my chrome top.

with my sptwks engines it is a little overkill . the werks and novarossi engines in particular can use the extra voltage(very tight pinch) . im looking at picking up a couple more very tight engines that the extra power is needed as well . I kept reading these guys talk about the 4s in boxes and at the same time struggling with losi boxes and also the pinch in some engines I was leaving the stuff at home cause the things were a pain to mess with . its just super nice to know that theres not 1 engine or maintnance with a gel as well as weight of gel cell thats gonna interupt a day of racing . that rossi engine and werks running in the same day killed my starter boxes with gel . the extra power its litterally a bump(little push) to start an engine(makes it super nice)
