Brushless was being pushed as the savior of the hobby and we all said it would backfire......Because the expectations were placed on it to do so. All the experienced racers said it would NOT level the playing field. We all said it would be up to the individuals SKILL level to learn how to properly gear the car and drive the car etc etc etc....Now that the can has been opened and we all see what's in it we want to close it up again instead of dealing with it and learning what we have. I think it's pathetic. I'm still actually surprised this stuff is still going on about the same thing over and over and over and over and over....

This rule change is about companies selling more product! If it goes back to non adjustable speed controls you will be forced to buy a speed control every couple of months. Batteries will be more important than ever, AND the motor of the month will be back! If that is what you want then let ROAR force this on you. Some of us can see it anyway......
