Default Best Lipo for 2wd off road

I am thinking of getting a lipo but what power is best suited for 2wd off road? Would a 4800 be too powerful and punchy or does that not really make a difference? What do other people use?

got 2 4500 TrakPower Lipo's and they rule.
Hardcasing, very robust and not to expensive, at least less expensive then a similar Orion Lipo.
But I guess A Orion Lipo is a bit thinner.

Where can I find these? I´ve only seen their shiny 4900ers so far.
Are there any hard case alternatives on the market besides the Orions (Peaks) and Venoms? And does anyone know the estimated release date of the new Reedys?

i think rick horwart mentioned a Jan release date for the hardcased Reedy lipos.

i'm presently using an orion 3200 with my RB5. i wouldn't say it's a rocket but its unbelievably convenient just to bring one battery pack to racing.
no dischargers, no equalisers.
