Vintage Series - Proposal for Brushed Motors Only

[peetbee]

It's been proposed to me that we would encourage more vintage runners out if we were all limited to brushed motors.

To make it even more interesting we could even go for everyone running the same motor!
The Ansmann Clash 18T motors are dirt cheap - somewhere around £6ish, I used one in my optima mid briefly last year and in my T3. Ran very well too.
Brushed speedos capable of running these motors are pretty cheap too, even if you bought new, something like the Etronix Probe is only around the £20 mark.

What does everyone think?
Save those transmissions and encourage some more people to dust off their cars or stick to anything goes!
May even break the cars less if you are running slower!

Dave was running brushed in his optima mid last year for the series - using an old LRP brick of a speedo that's normally included in a RTR kit!

I am not proposing to outlaw lipos though and in case anyone thinks I'm biased I don't own any brushed gear.
