This is taken from trakpowers site.

Normal charge rates for a LiPo pack are 1C (1 x Capacity in Amps) this will take around 1 hour, TrakPower packs are capable of being fast charged at up to 2C with a TrakPower V-Balancer or other certified balance charger.

2c is not something I would do, as on other sites it claims charging a lipo at more than 1c decreases the life of the battery.
As said in other posts not many chargers go above 5amps anyway, so just charge them a few days before the event if time is an issue but for safety always use a lipo bag.
