This has been hashed, rehashed, triple hashed, (begin loop here).

You know I am a fan of Tekin. Love their stuff, and when we first went to the current generation of rules, I was for allowing blinky mode speed controllers. Then that Vegas fiasco happened where the blinky mode had timing advancement. Tekin got it sorted out but it also left doubt behind as to how level the playing field would be with updatable ESC's on the list.

I could see the possibility of someone with the skills breaking the code and then all the sudden every Tekin blinky is faster than everything else.

I am still hoping Tekin will come through with an acceptable ESC. I think they may have dropped the ball on that one in spite of the teaser that Jim left in here a few weeks ago.
