Default 10 minute finals?
With the introduction of the new batt list for this year and the ridiculous amount of capacitiy available, is it time we move on and introduce 10 minute finals for example?

What are peoples thoughts on this?

Not for me, longer races = longer day, or less people racing.

Already doing 7 mins. Finals at the EPR Winter Warmer series
Would possibly do 10 if we had a little more light

Maybe something to think about for the SE GP meeting we're thinking of doing again 11 April 2010.

Brings something else to our racing!

Unfortunately my X12 motors are cooking after 5 mins. Try 10 and they will be fried.
