I'm not an expert in the area; I'm just repeating what I've learned from others and from my ESC manufacturer.

Sure a 3200 mah 20C will be enough to complete a race. But will it be optimal? It probably won't deliver as much current as your system would want to have and will probably be quite warm (even maybe hot) afterwards... I just figure, for just a bit more, why not go for a more suitable Lipo?

Just my 0.02$ Take it for what it's worth and have fun whatever you decide!

You couldn't be more wrong, the 3200 20C Lipo will provide more than enough (like already said), and they do not get hot, as in race conditions they are well within there limit with even me driving them.
