Can lrp sxx tc v2's be used in blinky, can they be set for it, or only the sxx stock spec?

Secondly, wasn't blinky originally only for 2011, is there still a new class for next year where it will be unprogrammable stock esc's only? Or is blinky carrying on??

As an aside as a rules issue, it's a pain if esc's are only good for one class, I prefer to use the same one for several applications!

Lrp Manual attached.
Look carefully under "Special Features" on the 2nd page. It says:
"Advise: if value #0 is choosen for Mode.3 the blue LED will flash in neutral position in normal operation to indicate
that entire timing advancement is disabled completely for „true stock racing“ as required by certain federations!"
