I think longer finals is the only thing we lack in tenth scale, last year I ran a couple of the bcl series, running my then cat in with 12th nitros !! 20 min finals !!
I was using tp 3600 lipos and did a battery change after 10 mins, using novak electrics on sunny days on grass.. It wasn't any hotter than normal...get the gearing right and no issues..
Agree that it would mean longer days but let's be honest we all go for as much track time as poss ESP when we have driven 2hours or so to a track..
At Worksop yesterday there were about 9 4wd finals and about 7 2wd finals, add an extra 5 mins to each and were talking 80 extra mins so only finishing just over an hour later... Not that bad
