Why?

A fuel injection system would not cost much I think. And should be very long lasting. Advantages would be:

-less consumption = you don't need a suitcase full of engines just in case
-LOWER costs, as you keep the engine temperature stable = less overheating & breakage
-more power = you don't need a super hand tuned engine

Look at the A mains of 200mm and 1:8 TR - in the EC or WC - not even those guys can keep the engine running for 45 or 60 minutes. Or make a 5 minute qualification run... very often these days the lucky ones win, not the best drivers...

C'mon... for electrics we now have brushless and lipo, it's time to move on also for fuel classes. Those carburettors are vintage!!!
