Can I mix the batteries on a 2 cell mod? I mean I have my stock battery and my upgraded battery so does it matter?

Thanks guys... I will just wait till I can order another upgraded battery before trying it. I just wanted to see how much performance I would get from a 2 cell. I already have the upgraded battery, 3.8, antenna mod, remote mod, large wheel mod and a few others. So can I do it just to see what to expect?.

web guy. it will work fine for testing. in the long run you want them to be matched tho.

As someone else on this forum has discovered...IT'S A BAD IDEA to mix batts. And I'm just talking about mixing capacities (like 100mAH and 150mAH), if you're asking about mixing the stock (Nicad) with an upgraded NiMH? Then HELL NO don't do it.
#1: Mix ONLY the same chemistry! NiCad with NiCad or NiMH with NiMH
#2: Match the batteries, as far as capacity goes.
To explain #2 better, I'll describe an example of what can happen if you mix different capacities.
Let's say you connect a 100mAH NiMH batt with a 150mAH NiMH batt. Since they're not matched, as it discharges the higher capacity batt has more to discharge. Once the lower capacity gets to empty and the higher capacity is STILL dissipating the pack...Guess what? You've got a chance of running the lower capacity batt into the NEGATIVE (voltage).
Draining a battery's voltage into the negative is a BAD thing.
Match the batts.

Thanks for all of your advice. I will just drop in my two stock batteries for now and do it and then order one more upgraded battery and when it gets here I will run that.
I just also orderd 2 of the Bit Rigs from Ebay and they will be here next week. Can't wait to start hopping it up!!
