I have been told my suspastox with a 13.5 in will perform the same with both batteries as the core esc can only draw so much current

Is this true ?
If you believe the numbers, the first LiPo can deliver a constant 80A (3.2x25), the second can deliver a constant 364A.

The Core ESC is rated for a constant 45A. 364A would burn out the wires!

In my experience, older/cheaper 25C LiPos don't feel as punchy as newer 50C LiPos, but the difference is small, and you may not even notice it in the Supastox.

Test and see which one gives better laptimes. Then use the better one for your racing.
