Most that I have talked to said that if you are going to do this, just bring 235mm back. It was a fun class (both 2wd and 4wd) but became a casualty of the "money" war which pushed its cost in the 1/8th scale range. Back then, I was not a fan of the "spec class" thing but in hindsight, having more "spec"-type classes would have saved a few classes and possibly kept attendance up in many locations. I will still stand by my "bring the 235mm class back" statement made on a related thread to this topic.
Noone is stopping you and your friends to bring out your 235mm class. Ultimately the market will decide which class survives....
