See that's where you are wrong IMO... Vegas lives on the 3% of the population that goes there, many more stay at home and wish they could go!

In RC racing, the same thing happens.. You have people willing to spend 50$ every club race on new tires because it gives them an edge. People are willing to smoke a $100 motor just to win a club race..

Then there are people like me who also have kids in the sport and are forced to race under a budget- trying to make a $79 motor last as long as humanly possible... Using a $50 set of tires for 2 months (8 races) or more if I can manage it.. Hell I've bought the fast/money guys used tires and wheels (1 or 2 race old tires) for ten bucks..

That's where a spec class comes in.. and as I said earlier, the reason my brother's boys and my daughters will be out there in 25.5 blinky legends cars running spec gearing.. They may never have anyone else join them- but it will keep it cheap for us and make it fair and level for them and if anyone joins them.
