The best way is to speak to someone at the club, meeting dates are on our website (currently weekly until further notice).
There are very many reputable brands out there, Demon and Trakpower are my recommendations, but thats just personal choice
If you are running club days, I would suggest buying 2 packs because with the short in between rounds you will not charge up in time on one pack.
Charge time depends on how large the batery is, and how much you have used out of it, but from flat it will take over an hour.
Run time again depends on how large is your battery, and what type of car & motor you use.
hope that helps
