Maybe we should ask a TCC affiliate or vendor to get these for a group buy?...
you technically dont' need a vendor except to post in that forum.. on the site it's simple buy 5 and get @ 63$ each... everywhere else i've looked it was way more closer to 115$ and 140$ US + shipping
even buying 2 meansd you get 5$ offf!
there is price gouging going on!

if we buy 5 they cost about CAD 80$ + shipping and i know at least 5 people want this battery on this forum...
this will cost about the same as a battery from CT... with shipping

NRG-CELL Racing Batteries have arrived! A Heeltoe Automotive exclusive, NRG-CELL batteries will save an unbelievable amount of size and weight under the hood of any car! Measuring a mere 3.25" wide, 6.875" long, and 5" tall, and weighing in at a paltry 11.5 lbs, this battery wants a home in every race or sports car. The NRG-CELL battery is a totally sealed 12-volt dry-cell lead-acid battery. One NRG-CELL battery will start any 4-cylinder, most 6-cylinder, and a many 8-cylinder vehicles easily numerous times successively as it provides a full 400 Hot Cranking Amps and approximately 250 Cold Cranking Amps.

You can mount NRG-CELLs in any orientation, and anywhere in the car without the need of a battery box. They do not emit hydrogen fumes so ventilation of the trunk or passenger compartment is not necessary with NRG-CELL. In addition, there are no special shipping requirements for NRG-CELL batteries. Standard ground shipping is typically only $15 anywhere in the continental USA and Canada!

NRG-CELL Racing Batteries are deep cycle, so they can be re-charged over and over again with any approved battery charger. Un-installed, a fully charged NRG-CELL battery will last over a year and retain it's charge, making it an excellent reserve or starter battery in boats, other marine vehicles, and desert racing trucks and buggies! Simply check the charge annually, and leave for a trip with peace of mind.
