Default ? Q on battery run time

i have a Orca pro spec VC4 MKII ESC with a orca 540 7,5t motor

my genral Q is i have a choice of two batteries

1/ Ansmann Race Xirius 7.4v 4000mAh 20C LiPo Saddle Packs

2/ Team orion rocket stick pack 7.2 - 5100mAh

Just working on the two batteries above what would be the best to buy for club racing

what sort of run time would i be looking at , i know this depends on driving style but im new to the electric side of things and just would like to know an average run time
Thanks Digger

You will be better off with the Ansmann Lipo pack if you intend to do any sort of racing. Both will give 10 - 15 mins of run time though.

Im at silverstone on Tuesday night, do you have anything to set the electrics up with ready for Tuesday ?

Not worth selling mate, there Turnigy packs an only £20 or so new. Your welcome to borrow them for Tuesday, collect today/tomorrow and get the Car ready for Tuesday.

Or have you tried Russ ?

Yes mate that will get you going for Tuesday. You will need to recharge between heats, if you need another set to help out ill have a set you can use for the night.
