    I know your point greg. Using the minican (F-can?) with available (american wound) Hawk,Big Dog, or 12 arms IS another new level of motor building wars with similar costs to C-can exploits. All I am saying is that the replacable brush setups have similar DRIVING characteristics to the existing C-cans and the C-can cars are less likely to drive over the rear of these racers than the solid can (FK130) Falcon/Hawk/Evil9 cars. FEWER track calls and frustrated 'A' drivers.

    Larry, the PS/FK will be allowed ONLY if it is sealed with stock arm. There will be NO building of FK/ Mini Motors allowed. If you want to build, run C Cans. The only reason these motors are allowed is to attract new racers to series with a low cost option. Hasn't really accomplished that but that is a discussion for another day

    Bernie,

    I like that phrasing "only sealed with stock arms are allowed". I'll add that to the rules.

    I think that our intent with the cheap little motors is very clear.

    Before it becomes an issue, maybe we should make a ruling on the eligibility of the new Mossetti Racing stamped chassis in the Bprod class.

    Something different:

    I need to be in Madison, WI the week after the November 7 GLISRA race, so I'll be at the race for sure. I checked with Mike and he's OK with making it a two day race (Production, 1/32 F1 and 1/32 ES on Sunday morning).

    I'm 90% sure that Rob will be coming, too.

    So let's have a real big race! Let's also plan on dinner afterwards. We can discuss the new Mosetti chassis then. My understanding is that it will be in at the 2016 Worlds, but that it is not yet ready for prime-time, and a version 2 will be the one that we race at the Worlds.

    Is everything run on the flat track? Hopefully I can make a few.

    That would be great if you could make it out for a few races Matt. I always have a couple loaners available.

    This month we will be racing all classes that will be run next year at the ISRA Worlds. We try to do that 2-3 times a year.

    As Ricky said, all classes are on the flat track.

    I updated the schedule (1st page, post 1) for up to date dates and locations. Please take a look and note the changes.

    Thanks!
