Two of Finland's top M8 drivers and Finnish 2010 Worlds team members Ari and Arto Heinonen have joined the H-Energy team



Two of Finland's top M8 drivers and Finnish 2010 Worlds team members Ari and Arto Heinonen have joined the H-Energy team and will use the LiFePo RX-products in their Xray XB808 cars. Both are very competent and fast drivers and an essential part of the growing H-Energy team. Ari and Arto were satisfied of the performance of H-Energy packs after testing them and have this to say: H-Energy LiFePo packs fits perfectly in XB808, they are light, won't require the additional regulator like LiPo and provide runtimes covering easily the 45min-1h finals.
