I agree, that is my point. If everyone runs the same speed control and motor, then there is no opportunity to cheat. Sure, there are those who will change out rotors in the motor and the like, but that is usually pretty easy to see. The biggest problem here is the lack of tech, or no tech at all. At least in Nascar they tech the cars several times throughout the weekend. Nascar also mandates like 95% of all the parts that teams are allowed to use, which would essentially be the same as mandating the ESC and motor.
