I'm not certain. Typically sport packs are just random cells which were not used for matched packs. Matched packs are grouped by similar voltage. Race or zapped packed are treated to allow for similar discharge characteristics (for consistency) and higher voltage and cell capacity. Team packs might have similar or slightly better 'zapping' or some other treatment, but if I said I knew it would be a lie.

Race series features the same run time as the Team Series cells only they have lower voltage

Tower has the Race for 52.99 and the team for 67.99 both 6 unassembled cells

Right, typically, Trinity's Team packs have better voltage numbers than their Race packs(I know it doesn't sound right, but that's how Trinity has always done it). However, I really wouldn't bother with either from them(just my opinion), I think you can get noticably better numbers from some of the other matchers at similar prices(Trinity has always tended to save their really good cells for their Factory Team drivers only, so us mortals only get the stuff they wouldn't use themselves, except for practice, while matchers like ProMatch, EA Motorsports, Team Hurricane, etc. will sell anyone cells that are VERY close to the same quality as their sponsored guys' packs, that's where I started buying from before I went to LiPo's)....:cool:
