I remember years ago before brushless..as I'm sure William can remember we all started with a 27 turn stock motor..these were painfully slow off road compared to a 10.5 of nowadays..but they were plenty fast enough for me the first time I started racing....I do agree totally that any beginner young and old would find a 10.5 far too much for them..I think even roar in America has changed the stock class from 10.5 to 17.5 for this very reason..so I think lowering the motor or having a beginners class would be good...providing there's enough interest to start it...it's a fine balance between getting new members and being able to accommodate everyone without putting them off the sport...by this I mean finding things too difficult and quitting...
