Brushless Motor Racing.
We all know about them. They have been around for a long time and they last a long time. Simply they don’t wear out. No changing brushes, no cutting coms, no need for the battery war. We all know the major manufactures are going to release them soon but are holding back as long as they can to continue to make money from us. I know that they are not legal yet, but if we wait for something to happen it will never happen. Too many people make too much money out of it.
So lets just do it and leave the racing world as we know it behind and let them catch up for once. Just have a read at the Racing Lines Magazine in the article on the Hacker Brushless Motors if you need to be told how quick they are.
People, post away or drop me an e-mail and lets see if I can get a format so we can race. But we need to think what we really want.
Do we want longer race times or faster speeds???????
This five minute racing is ok but the nitro guys have all the fun with their 15 minute finals and so on. What I was thinking was race times in the 8 minute mark or maybe 10. That way the battery war is not so critical and the speeds will be up from what it is now. But if we want to stay at five minutes than that’s fine. It’s up to you!!!! The racer….. here is your chance to have a format that you want.
As long as we move ahead in this sport and stop racing, what can be compared to a carburettor breathing push rod engine. Lets race Hi Tech!!!!!!!!!!!! Western Australia already have a class for this simply called “Open class”. Lets start it on the east coast. How cheap will “Open class” be compared to the “Modified class” as we know it now. Also I can see it as being more a drivers class and not a “Who can make run time” class.
I know I am keen to save money, race longer and quicker than before, but it’s going to take someone with the balls to arrange something and the commitment from other people to make this a success. How cheap will “Open class” be compared to the “Modified class” as we know it now.
