This review is from: Traxxas 6-Cell 7.2V 1200mAh Ni-MH:1/16 SLH,ERV (Toy)
I also have a 2 pack of the Tenergy 1400mAp NIHM & these traxxas batteries are better. These have MUCH better run times & better lower end speed acceleration over the Tenergy NiMH.
Running a 1/16 traxxas summit on lose gravel with stock gearing.

I run two of these in a 1/16 Gymkhana car with the parallel connector. It successfully doubles run time over the single battery to about 30 minutes. Takes about 75 minutes to charge with the EZ Peak 2 charger set to 1 amp. If you're looking for longer run times, I highly suggest the 2200mah LiPo batteries. More expensive since you have to buy a lithium charger but run time increases to about 45 minutes of hard driving. With the extra punch the lithiums also allow the car to drift at full speed, unlike these NiMH.
Get a LiPo instead,

If you've got a 1/16 traxxas RC Car and wish to use the original NiMh Battery that comes with the Kit, you must buy another and use 2 of them in Parallel(you'll have to Buy a Parallel cable conector too), so you have some more time of running...
With one Nimh Battery you'll have about 10 to 15 min of run time...I have 2 of them...and I've got a bit more than 30 min os run time...
With ONE LiPo Battery 2cel 2200mAh, I had a bit more than 40 min of run time. And the LiPo have much more Burst of energy on the throttle. And they charge faster. But you'll need a LiPo charger as well.
If I knew this before i wouldnt have bought the NiMh, I'd have Bought the LiPo instead.
