Not really - at the end of the day a high proportion of racers exhibit serious magpie like behaviour and will no doubt be pre-ordering Percy's because they are new and fancy even though no clubs can currently run them.
We are ridiculous 'bandwagon' jumpers to a man - just look at the current fashion for +8mm chassis. Notice its got to be 8mm longer - no more no less - regardless of the original length. 8mm longer is cool, even when its actually not as good on your clubs tight twisty track!
Percy's will be released, the magpies will buy, then moan the clubs into going RC4 and the rest of us will have to fit in. Such is the real nature of this hobby.
