A couple of years ago (when I was activly racing off road!!) I genuinely thought that 1/8 electric would be popular. However, now i'm not sure.
Becuase the cars are bigger / heavier than 10th, I'm not so sure they suit existing 10th venues all that well. So that puts them into the 8th venues, where I'm not so sure the current drivers really want them. I think a lot of those guys race 8th because they like engines, they like the noise / small, they like long bump up finals etc.
So I think it could end up as a class that kind of sits in the middle and doesn't really work for anyone. I could of couse be wrong, it wouldn't be the first time (by a long shot!)
