I had a chat on Tuesday with some fellow club members that have raced for many years...
They all said the same thing " i thought reverse was banned "
Guess its been an assumption for a long time, in the good old days of brushed motors, the top level speedos were all forward/brake and the brushed motors were heavily timed and diodes added, you wouldn't have been able to run reverse without sacrificing the forward and stopping bit heavily!
Just shows how much attention we spend on the finer rules... at least the SCT class has shown some loopholes to the masses!
Tony, there will be a large number of drivers not using reverse, i'm one of them... a bit disappointed with decision on rules but we don't know if its a big enough issue to argue about until racing starts, can soon be ammended if it is seen as too much of an advantage.
As long as the racing is fun and the refs are not being too harsh with any of us then it will be fine and a great championship...
Just have to make sure we bury the trucks with reverse holding us up well deep into the hoses! (in a fair and sporting manner of course)
As Mark says, give it a go, lets make this SCT racing thing work
