Some people have invested heavily in their cars & equipment, and I get that.

And who knows, we may be looking at the wrong end of the stick, would it be better for individual clubs to introduce a control motor, and preferably one that other clubs chose? The reasoning behind this is to find a common ground that clubs, and racers could start to participate in inter-club championships once again.

*edit* let 21.5, & 13.5 remain as they are and create an additional class*
The best option I can think of is to give advanced notice. Once a control motor is decided, an announcement could be made that it will be taking effect in 1 year. That means that people can still get some good use out of their current motors.
