Also a very well tuned 27t is a bit faster then 17.5. Evidence of this was at the recent carpet nats. Only one brushless car made the show (Chuck Lonergan).
These rules will hurt brushless racing at major events because people are simply going to run what is faster...
Yeah I second this. I have seen plenty of 17.5's that were way too slow, so they decide to gear up to keep up and they blow up.
That rhymed. Anyway, right now I like tuning my motors and knowing they are cheaper and faster I will keep on using them until BL technology gets better and smaller(for ESC's).
