just pasted this from the trakpower site. basically you get 100 top race performances the 200 practice (club night ) either way once you,ve felt the differance in your car you wont go back. I got the muchmore silent ac/dc charger from dinball £77 inc postage and a must have charging bag £9.99 local model shop. Make sure you have a updated esc that has a voltage cut off of 6.25v built in as if lipo,s dip under 6v they are goosed. if you have older esc then use a novak smart stop this will save your lipo,s
