Losi 1/12 NASCAR Battery Fit & Picks
Best lightweight picks (battery tray ≈ 102 × 34mm):
- CNHL Black Series 1300mAh 2S 100C (XT60) — agile feel, fast direction changes, excellent for tight layouts and short heats.
- CNHL Black Series 1500mAh 2S 100C (XT60) — a touch more runtime and mid-corner composure while staying within tray limits.
Connector & Wiring Guidance
The car ships with IC2. If your pack uses XT60, use a short XT60→IC2 adapter (or re-terminate leads) to minimize extra resistance. After installation, recheck steering lock and body clearance at full droop and compression.
Setup Notes for On-Road Grip
- Tire prep: run-in the Goodyear slicks on clean asphalt; avoid harsh solvents that could soften sidewalls excessively.
- Battery placement: push the pack forward for initial turn-in, rearward for late-apex drive.
- ESC: verify cutoff for 2S LiPo and keep the motor fan unobstructed.
