I have been used various nanotech batteries in touring car, 17.5 blinky, and 13.5 boosted. The discharge rating on them is nowhere near as they state it. They are nice, but DO NOT charge them over 1C, or they will fade very very quickly, and they'll loose all their punch, and the car will feel utterly "flat". They are brilliant batteries for the price, I raced almost 2 seasons with them(1 summer, and 1 winter series), and they lasted for pretty long(the fact, that they cost only £30-ish, makes them replaceable for every 2.nd race), but if you want performance, and a spot in the A main, forget these batteries, they can not compete against the big brands. Guys with better batteries pulled away from me in the straight from the corner like I was standing there... Their car was not faster in top speed, but acceleration wise the difference was crazy.

All in all, awesome bashing battery and excellent beginners racing battery, I would still recommend it.
