i now why this is happening its because when u use a stock motor ur car doesnt use alot of energy to move the car but when u install a stage2 u car needs more power to get ur car moving faster so it needs more energy and thats y ur batteries die sooooooo quick... :D :) 8)

The motor is drawing more current because it spins faster. I would suggest you switch to a Stage 2 Red, because it'll give you very good torque with good top speed, but it won't do much for your battery life. I would also suggest picking up a set of Rayovac IC3s, since they charge in 15 minutes.
