So something like this body would pass the new rules?...

That is not FUN. i'll never race usvta again. roar sucks too but--at least they are not bonkers.
I saw about 4 edge esc's go up in smoke-and a couple just quit

If there is a big change coming then I hope it's the opposite of anything being banned. That being said. This is my class. Come what may. There will be no talk from me of quitting or rebelling. Ahem. Within reason. For instance, if the new rule is that we have to go without pants or something like that then I'm out.

Well here in Georgia the mosquitoes are pretty bad this year and it's a bit of a health hazard. Plus you can't drive while bugs are biting you.

Timing speedos are now allowed but you can only run 10% and gear ratio's are frozen at 4.6.

I thought it would be the banning of realistic paint jobs - where everyone will be required to run flames and drips and crazy colors.
