Terry you posts are very long and dry, some of your good/valid points may get lost in the noise of being boring
( not having a dig just saying)
saying that i don't think your points are not aligned to the average 1/10 racers thoughts and if its regulated by racers this its a bit of a contradiction.
i've never heard of any one trying to over change there cells in 1/10 if you want to go faster you just add boast on your ESC or use a faster motor, some one please correct me if i am wrong.
its sounds like each class should have its own tailored rules or exceptions,
rules are rules and there need to be rules but there ain't nothing wrong with challenging them.
