Well I guess I missed the part where other drivers were not using $400 radios and brushless servos and lightened chasis. Actually I didn't cause many used the same. Just look at the picks from the worlds some drivers of each of the brands of cars were Modded almost beyond recognition. Some were also pretty much stock. It's what you do at that level of competition. Hell it's what you do at the club level. I mean have'nt you been to a club race and looked at some guys car and said "What the Hell". Man just be happy for the dude and don't make up reasons why he won. He won because on that day he was better than everyone in the world period. Nothing he did was illegal and every other driver/team had the chance to do the same. Oh and I should mention some did and it didn't help.
