The 10.5 class is fast enough without being "stupid fast" (especially with today's speedos), and is a big enough step up from 17.5 to make it worthwhile. Do well in 17.5, then you must move up to "Pro" class.

Good Luck getting promoters to work together when they all want to have the biggest and most prestigious race. Funny that one of the promoters mentioned above also promotes/announces the ETS in Europe and has one of the legs of that series the same weekend as the Indoor Champs and one the same weekend as the Snowbirds.

sorry 10.5 opens more can of worms then the every week speedo. it will become who has the best motor this week. So leave pro to open mod like it should be :-) then you can run whatever motor is fast enough for you.
