There are a few aspects here here's my twopennorth

where i race (touring Cars) we run two classes our "stock class" allows 27t brushed motors or 15.5 and above brushless or prostock 13.5 brushless .
we run on a polished wood floor anything above 13.5 is pointless as there is not enough grip.
brushed technology is not dead ,admittedly brushless is taking over .but while i can purcase top spec brushed speedos for £20 and motors for pennies i can still be competitve in stock class
brushless tech is not cheap and many youngsters and dads ! just cannot afford it . Many of us started with a tamiya and a clockwork charger from our local model shop. that avenue is slowly closing
not all of of us want to race at any more than club level.

just my opinion (my wife says i can have one just this once)
