I see your point but it is wrong. A given motor will be as fast as the power available. You can strap 4 Lipo packs together and make the car into a record breaker, that is not to say that motor was pulling its maximum from 1 pack and it really needs more.
Running 3200 20C Lipo with a 5.5R motor in a weighted up car, the car will be marginally quicker than a car with new Nimhs in. But you still won't need or use all the power available all of the time. The packs come off cool, no warmer than teppid..... is that a word? they'd get hotter left in direct sunlight anyway.
