Assuming good gearing, and careful throttle application (no blipping, smooth on/off and rarely use full throttle as it's not needed), 5500mAh is easily enough for a 15 minute race (including the last lap basically).

Losi 45/15 gearing, Hobbywing 80amp ESC & 1965kv HPI Motor running with 4s 6000mah NanoTech lipos - 22 minutes runtime.
Was running a Monster Mamba & 2200kv motor & getting just over 20 minutes runtime.

Tekin 1900 using either Gens Ace 5800 45c, or Vampire 6200 70c (my arse)Would be fine for 15 mins,2/2s Serpent Cobra
