I just made the change from dual Optima yellows (the biggest) to a single Performance V 16v. Have not tried it yet. I found the Optimas were a major pain to keep charged and maintained at the track. That's the biggest reason I made the change.

I read it today and what they mean is that many replace 2 x 12 volt with one 16 volt and forget that they dont have more amperage just volts,the 16 volt battery will give no varning like slower running starter when its low,it will just quit,atleast thats how i read it,so if you drive it to the lanes and back and dont have an alternator they suggest 2 batterys just like you would with 12 volt battery's!
