hey
id jusy like to say i run a novak bl in my 1/12 scale and it goes hard no run time worries and matches the rest,good enough to place 4th at recent nsw state titles.it makes running too cars so much cheaper and easier.
just thought id put this in even if it doesnt have anything to do with mod racing

Bk, the poll you are running seems to be misleading when you compare it to the proposal that has been put to the clubs affiliated to AARCMCC, I would prefer to see it based on facts not fiction.
Guys, one thing to remember that this will only affect AARCMCC santioned events, which most of you will proberly only run a couple in a year. Day to day club racing is upto the individual clubs to make up their own minds of what mixture of motors etc.
BTW, doesn't the entry form for the Winter Chumps state no brushless ??
If anyone wants to see the proposal put forward, they can contact me at Peter Ellis and I will forward it on.
Just for the records, those who have mentioned the Novak SS5800 brushless motor and speed control, read the instruction manual properly before quoteing that this has a stock profile. You will find that it actually has a limited profile.
I will be impartial to any comments, given the position i have to fill with AARCMCC.

Two of the Poll options are realistic and they happen to be the two most popular choices
And although the AARCMCC only officially affect AARCMCC sanctioned events, the national rules do have an impact on what rules clubs adopt for everyday racing. Theres no point investing in Brushless if come the the big events you can not run the system.
This is the very reason ive switched back to brushed motors, i have no faith in the rule makers or govenrning body, so i'll just run with the most common motor rules that i know wont change.
I'd be pretty happy with wholesale IFMAR adoption
rubber tire and all!

12 mths ago you didn't even have anyone to approach on these matters,
12 mths ago you would have had no chance of getting a brushless motor on the track.
Brushless will still be around racing, the question is will it remain a part of the brushed motor class or not.
The only people that will kill off brushless are people like your self. Why don't you do something constructive like run a pole as to how many people will run brushless at the next Nats & State Champs
Paul, You seem to have a problem of trying lead people astray from the facts to suit your devices.

I like the idea of seperate BL and Brushed motors, but this will weaken the mod scene, we dont have enough racers to support both classes properly. So i'll race the class i think has a stronger future, and maybe even run both when possible.
This only affect the State Titles and Nationals, but these are the two events we spend all year practicing for.
The new proposal looks resonable i think it will pass.
