I’m not sure who or if you are directing this at anyone. My proposal is basically what you are saying. I’m proposing this class of “spec” racing for newer racers, the rest of us would run open buggy....

Cain- It’s interesting that you mention 1/8 nitro. I’ll take that comparison. First, 1/8 nitro is a .21 motor, modified is a 540 size brushless motor. They both have a spec. Second, to answer your...

The sponsored/veteran racers are at full speed, not the new racers that don’t want to run slash or have their buggy get destroyed by a 4wd SC in Sportsman. Again, this class is not intended for local...

The motors we are looking at could be had for $50 or less. If the idea works there wouldn’t be a 17.5 class. If it doesn’t, a fixed timing motor won’t compete with a race motor on turf.
