Much as I think we're all ready to move on, this seems like the right move considering our race is only 10 days after the d3.5 falls off the list.

Are you sticking to the ROAR Esc list? Allot of the newer speedos are still not listed, see the ROAR Carpet Nats thread. I still have my older esc's for such ROAR nonsense!

That would be the one that had never been sent to ROAR for approval:

But Jaco is now owned by BSR. So isn't it all the same now.

Thanks howard,
we have always said our list is roars list. we made the decision for the d 3.5 for the reasons stated above. as much as i want everyone to be able to run what they have, we just can't go on allowing things on a per item basis. unless something changes in the two months before our race, our list is roar's list.

Slow and frustrating as ROAR's process can be, I think it's important to leave the approvals to them and follow their lead. The exception for the d35 is only due to the proximity of our race to its expiration date on the approval list. And it's a delayed expiration which is different than a new inclusion.

I'm hopeful ROAR approves ESCs and new batteries before our race. It seems like stock of legal packs is drying up in favor of the not-yet-legal 7600s.
