No problem with that one, dude! I'm actually quite curious myself.
Several points have been raised in this thread about why people had to buy new lipo's and as far as I can remember the only valid one is changing chassis. I've recently gone from stick to saddle so was in the same boat myself (except that this is gonna be another year I don't get to do regionals).
But as so many top drivers have said many time we have too much power in off road these days, so replacing lipo's cos they are a year old is just stupid. I've got a Trakpower 4900 stick pack that's nearly 3 years old and has as much punch now as it did new. It's almost a shame to retire it!
My latest are Intellect 4200 saddles. I have one set that will get used for every practice, every race and every final I do for the next 2 years before I even think of replacing them. As far as I'm concerned if 1 set can be used and charged in 1 evening's club racing then there is no problem when nationals and regionals last all day.
I think I'm turning into Victor bloody Meldrew
