The balancing bit is not relevant - it is the time it takes in the CV stage that is the same irrespective of the charge rate or balancing stage.

Reality check - do any of the A Final drivers in any electric class do this. Er... that'd be a "no" then... Thanks for proving it can be done, and that doing it costs more than a season's worth of tyres, fuel or a new race car. 1C up an down - I rest my case!!!
apart from my link to the charger that does 16 amps is only £60 which will easily do your suggested 6000mah lipo at 2 c
