How long are you actually running to get all the way to LVC?
I can get ~20 minutes, give or take, out of my 2wd (8.5T, moderately sized batteries, 4200mAh, IIRC) before the LVC cuts in.
Performance between the race starting and finishing (or a 10 minute practice) is all but unnoticeable. Even running the 6.5 (or 5.5) in a 4wd........
If you are racing, it shouldn't be an issue (not many electric races over 10 minutes are there)
If you aren't racing, why are you bothered?
ANd FWIW, performance isn't just volts, you need a decent discharge rate too. A poorly C rated battery will have a more noticeable drop off in performance as voltage drops. I noticed that with the cheap arse batteries that came with my first RTR, 20/30C was the rating IIRC.
