Radio open,,Finally a gear rule must run a fixed gear ratio,, i also think that the vehicle would have to meet a minimum weight,,again,, these are rules that i have seen with "spec" classes,, just offering them to those that are interested in the thought,,,, the only problem with the idea of this is that there is more money to be spent on an intial investment of motor battery and speed control and tires,, and then keeping track of some kind of tech on the vehicles and rules,, Mark feel free to throw in your thoughts on what a spec class should be just so everyone can get an idea of what they are looking at. And im not saying that i am at all interested in this idea at the moment,, just putting out the info.



Well I guess this will be a dead issue. There is no way were going to get 5-10 guys to commit to buying all new gear and then ACTUALLY sticking with it.
