Not to diss companies that specialize in boost/ramp/turbosizing but isn't it much more fair to racers without needing super batt's and pretty much just Tekin speedo's and the absolute best motor in a entire production

How would racing be with the motor companies having motors currently in use?

Are they equal? I know first hand that Team Powers motors in 17.5/13.5 are ballistic in blinky yet are all as fast as TP?

Would it be a fair playing ground for consumers for stock with what companies are making available in stock motor wise?

Reorganizing the classes with drivers approaching the class they are suited for without fear of being beat by technology when as good drivers they have a real chance at winning A mains

It would an adjustment for some to race in a class that might be not usual for them since if someone wants to say race 13.5 boosted but only blinky is offered hence modified just got an extra racer?

Would an implemented "blinky" only atmosphere expose who the really great racers are not being dependent on technology to give them a win even if they must mostly depend on a master setup and drive great to win these races and subsequent titles?

I am curious of the adjustment also when classes are reorganized because of technology specs being equal hence one speedo is for fast or drivers not an variable as important as setup/driving

Blinky vs. Boost/Ramp/Turbosizing?

You be the judge
I'm still working on quoting bear with me please
