roflmao.seems to me there is to many who dont want change,they want to pull the trigger flat and steer.they still want nimh
the whole idea is throttle control and setup.
why slow a class down just because a few cant keep up,they should be in a slower class.
all this crap about making a even playing field and cheaper is a joke.
if a guy has money to burn he will just over gear and replace motors every couple meets,new tyres,higher c rating batteries,the latest fast motor.
seems the days have gone were we used to say "hey look tony has a new battery and motor,that thing fly,s awesome" now its "tony has a new motor and its faster than mine,i am going to scream and cry and get his motor band"
your assuming that it is the guys that always wanted to go faster that are complaining.

roar created a slower class at carpet nats for the slower drivers or those of us that didn't want to race world class drivers in "stock" (no boost 17.5) it was successful racers that would have stayed home showed up and I think that is the whole purpose behind this discussion or rules packages, to up turnout, class is to slow don't run it, but don't bitch cause someone wants to and if more guys show up for the "big" races then thats a good thing
