2008 Tamworth Cup:NSW vs QLD Challenge
#18
It is rather unfortunate that your club has made this decision and I feel you may find that you have alienated a large number of Qld competitors. The technical committee for the interclub series in Qld, that represents 8 clubs, have formulated a list of allowable Lipo batteries and a charging regime based on testing over the past two years. This forward thinking decision has brought the lipo debate off the forums and onto the track. Quite a number of drivers have or are going down this path for both cost and consistant performance. I think your club should bite the bullet and reconsider your position on this matter and be an innovator for the State of NSW and the future direction of RC in Australia. Don't wait for someone else to make the decision. Just DO IT.

Please dont make a hasty decision. If you require more information to submit to the committee please contact Heavy from Action RC , one of your sponsors. Please ensure you can have all the facts at your disposal so your final decision is a fair one to all considering attending.

All I have been doing is trying to get a QLD contingent together to support your event...the problem arose when guys were told Lypos were banned ...quite a few pulled out because of it...as the event is billed as an interstate challenge...I did not want to see it be a non event ...do you have a problem with that?

Meakin Park was (as far as I know) the first club in SEQ that allowed the use of lipo in all classes. When it was first voted in (I was there) it was discussed that this type of thing would happen. We all knew that just because our club allowed them, many others wouldn’t, it was discussed very openly. It’s not like we didn’t know that this would happen from time to time. There have been plenty of discussions here on the forums as well. If a majority of racers from QLD sold up all their old packs for Lipo, well it’s not Tamworth’s fault.
