As a frugal (that means cheap) racer my vote is to keep all motors at the 70 turn we already all have rather than buy all new motors for the Racer, F1, and Nascar classes. This would keep the cost down and hassle of keeping track of motor numbers.

Other benefits would include:

• Laying out lots of advanced money for the motors
• Less time to get set up for racing and having to acclimate to the speed of the cars with the faster motors.
• No extra soldering
• Less chance of blowing up a board due to incorrect soldering
• No new motor break in time.
• Less chance to buy replacement motors because you got a bad one

I really dont think anybody would cheat with motors. For many racers extra speed is not an advantage.


If I was the race director I would have these classes:

Novice (kids)
Box Stock + set gearing, bearings, tires, and wheel nuts.
Racer 70 turn stock motor, open mods
F1 70 turn stock motor, open mods
Nascar 70 turn stock motor
Pan Car - Lexan body only - Open motor and mods
Offroad Buggy - 50 turn motor??, open mods.

That's just my opinion. I'm up for anything though and just looking forward to going once again.
