The only way that this is gonna change is if ROAR picks a ESC and motor and mandated those only in stock. With so many choices in "blinky" mode, there is just too many variables. This may not be a hugh issue in off-road, but it was an issue in dirt oval racing.
Unfortunately, the only problem with this, is the folks that choose to run a stock class will now have to buy new equipment...which I feel that most folks would not be willing to do.
