I must agree, I preformed several tests. Here is the setup, RSX, Stock Motor, Lights, hard tread tires front & rear, on carpet.

Duracell, almost 15 minutes running time, barely ran on carpet.
Duracell, no lights, 30 minutes, struggled on carpet.

600 mAh Ni-Mh, 30+- minutes running time, did OK on carpet.
600 mAh Ni-Mh, No Lights, 45+- Minutes Running Time, Did OK on carpet.

800 mAh IC-3, 45+ Minutes running time, hauled on carpet better than Duracell on smooth surface.

I have to say that the IC-3 batteries are able to output more power than any other batteries I tried. They are designed for high drain devices. And there are few devices that drain any more than an RC car.
