It made enough power to push me back into my seat a bit!

In retrospect, I shouldn't have done it in 5th gear!
HA! The two extra batteries part is awesome.

My Alltrax controller has a build in bypass. At least that's what I perceive the small bump in power to be when the armature approaches max voltage (motor at max power). But it's a small power pulse, not a two-extra-battery warp mode.
