If a motor is so much better than the others in blinky then that advantage will also show up when running boosted.

We run 21.5T boosted in F1s, and we have the situation that if any motor is allowed then you are limited to a choice of 1 motor, the Corally Red is so much faster than anything else. Running boosted there is no way you can tune another motor to match the speed of the Corally as you are just trying to match a faster motor that can use the same boost settings so the difference is much the same whether boosted or blinky.

Boost fans are always saying if they go to blinky they will have to start updating motors and building motors, yet somehow the old motors they have been using for ages are supposedly just as fast as the best motors today. I would just like to know why if you think you will be constantly buying the latest motors if you had to use blinky, why you aren't doing that with boosted considering the differences are just as noticeable.

If you want to stick to boosted then the simple answer is just sign up to boosted races, if it's the speed you want then sign up to mod. If the IIC sees the future is blinky and you are unhappy about it then so be it, don't attend the race. Complaining on here isn't going to make any difference to Scottys decision on which classes to run.
