Cheers Jay, i must admit that having raced 26-27 years ago (stockcars) and now coming back to racing within the last year or so its so confusing !. There now seems so many classes,different rules at different clubs....i'm not surprised its not more popular than it should be. Lets face it, if someone looked online (as kids nowadays do) you would be put off by what you can and can't race - this thread included -.
I think the only way to get kids to decide on a particular style/form of racing would be to go to a local club and see what THEY are running as it may not be the NORM or whats being used at nationals !
I thought of doing a different class due to work commitments, i.e the mardave circuit.....i read the rules...i read on here whats good to use and whats not.....and gave up ! too much argueing even at the national on what you can and can't use/run.
I'll wait and see what happens in the future.
Paul/gazza I appreciate what your doing and i commend you for trying something new and i looks great......i don't want to come accross as a suporter of mardave at all but if its a mardave class or section on a forum like this why confuse matters !? think of it from a point of view from someone new who has never heard of mardave and wants to get involved in a class of rc, how would it help this person ?
I'm not doing this to cause an argument....i've got better things to occupy me. But as someone who wanted to participate in this class and has been put off.
Col
