Messing with timing was a mod thing. Should ROAR make manufactuers produce fixed timed brushless motors?
This is not a problem that was created by the National Associations like ROAR. It is a problem created by us, the racers.
Everyone was clamouring for BL - level the playing field, no more tweaking motors, no more brushes and skimming, etc. - but they ignored those of us telling you that this would happen. The genie is out of the bottle, it cannot be put back, and there is no way that you can check this at the track.
Everyone is assuming that the AE BD speedo is about timing - it probably isn't. That means they have found something else, and Mamba have too. This is just the start. If the suspicions are true, a BDE with no timing in the speedo would still be faster than the a Novak/Tekin/LRP with no timing.
No one would listen to us when we said that this would happen, and that we needed to keep BR for the lo-cost classes. You've made your bed, have the good grace to lie in it and suffer your discomfort in silence. No one can help you, so you just need to get on with it. Sorry, but that's life...
