I'm trying to not point fingers at anyone, nor do I have anything bad to say about any of them. In fact I will be buying one of these as soon as the supply catches up with the back orders. I have also had some good setup help from some of these guys when pitting with their team drivers.I'm thankful for the help and happy to know some of them. Working hard within the current rules isn't wrong.
I'm more interested in seeing a rule change that brings the $70 motors within 2 laps of the high end motors in stock classes. Being 7 laps down because of a motor war doesn't help the hobby in general. This is assuming a clean run by similar drivers of course. The Boutique motors still weigh less and run cooler. That wouldn't change. It would be easier to invest in the current good stuff if we knew it wasn't going to be almost useless in 8 months of development.
