The BRCA publishes each year a formal homologation list of motors and lipo's which can be used at their events (regionals and nationals). Lists are here http://www.brca.org/?q=content/homol...1-updates/1402

For club racing it really depends on your club rules and whether they stick rigidly to the BRCA list. Most if not all clubs do insist on hard case lipo's and for this season the BRCA requirement to charge lipo's in a charge bag. Someone from Bury needs to advise you on their local rules.

At some stage you will probably want to race a regional and so my strong advice would be to make sure the lipo's you buy are on the homologation lists (separate list for stick and saddle configurations). Last year many of us bought new Trakpower lipo's ready for the new season to find they were not included on the list - so to avoid that happening to you, choose from the list.
