hence the comment re me getting my tail kicked!

I have seen that the RC scene is in a state of flux regarding the motor speeds/ sizes & how could the turbo/ non-turbo speedos be effectively policed when its common knowledge that there are pirate programs out there that can subtly enhance a motor whilst it appears to be running stock?

There is a good case for silver cans insofar that if you overgear them, they go off or 'let go', whereas the brushless can tolerate high/ over gearing so much better...

I like your idea with the fixed gearing ratios & the non-turbo 13.5s although I guarantee that we don't have enough support for that sort of class, let alone front wheel drive. But hey! It's worth a dream...

I'll have to find out what class they run in Boksburg South Africa before I go over there in December
27t old school all the way
