I'm not flaming anyone - I just think that consideration should be given to the average guy in the street who has to finance his racing out of his own pocket as well as balance a mortgage, kids, car etc etc. Claims of massive power are very enticing, but not if they leave Joe Average struggling because the cells need replacing every 4 months or so......
Thanks for your answer anyway Doc.

Hell, it's nice to see someone else on this forum who thinks like I do !
I nearly bought some IB's and would have gone through with it had Dr Voodoo's site worked properly on the day. Alas for whatever reason it didn't so my order never went through. I'm a bit of an impulse purchaser, and when you see claims of this and that on oople, you think, yes, i'll have a bit of that. Thankfully I did some research, read some more, spoke to people and then drew my own conclusions. As I do have to dig into my hard earned pocket for cells, I won't be buying IB's from any supplier. I'll wait and get some trusty GP's.
So what if they aren't quite there in terms of raw performance, a number of people on oople repeatedly claim they can get there cars going 'far' faster than they actually need to for a race, such is the excess power we have today, they even have to drop the odd wind or 2 ! Well I don't suffer from this terrible problem, but hopefully with the introduction of brushless and some nice new cheap unmatched GP's i'll be sort of on the pace and I won't have to worry about mishandling them, or them blowing up and such like, or hopefully break the bank.
