Well, I don't tend to believe EVERYTHING the adverts say.

As for the C Rating, if they are to low, those cells are going to get toasty, and yes, they do. During the winter running a 10.5 with low C Rating cells, I can easily raise the core temp of the cell, and thats only having to push a 1350g weight of car, not the weight of an 8th car. I guess, when someone comes along with a good spec cell, and just has more grunt everywhere and more run time, if your competitive you will buy those cells, and chances are, they will be hard cased anyway.

And healthy discussion is always good!
