I expect you'll find that if enough people wanted to run them most clubs would put on a heat - in my experience not many turn people away if they turn up and want to pay to race! However, most 1/8th drivers race the class because it is nitro - I know I used to - so why would they change to electric when they want to run nitro.

It's an age old debate - nitro vs electric, which is better? My personal view is that each has positives and negatives and different people will prefer different things. Neither is 'better' than the other, just different, and racers will race what they enjoy the most.
