I Repeat. WOW.
With 20 year I've been racing, Many of the last 10 years as a Race Director for many Regional, Nationals, and Ifmar World Events. R.O.A.R., Norrca,Ifmar and Arcor all have their own Rules.
The one thing I know is every race has it's own problems that do come up whether it minor or major. Track conditions change, Weather problems, Scoring problems. Some of these can be can be resolved by being more prepared or have help that has done large races before.
I have use almost all the scoreing software out there today. Let me tell you it all better than 10 people with a clipboard and a stopwatch.
All software has it own Quirks. Many of them are being driven by the driver and the media wanting more and more racing info. (ie) Practice lap times, Who turn the fastest lap and when, What race is up, When will the Mains be run. The best one I got one day was "Can the Computer tell me when to start charging my batteries". With that it is still a race, all driver are there to win for themselfs and their sponcers.
I look at this way. If you see someone in trouble with their car at a race most of us will try to help him or she out. If a track is have a bad time at a race and I can try and help them out I do.
I go to have a good time, Try to win, and be with my friends.

WC- What's Up Man!! Long time no chat.
That's the question of the month. We don't have an estimated time, release, price, partnumber, or any official specs right now.
It will run both Brushless and Brushed motors, that is ALL the information we're making available right now.
