Suggested Electric 1/8th section rules

[stum]

Looks fine, but isn't that just overstating the obvious? Most tracks already work this way, only large events such as Pro-Series and ROAR events have yet to adopt electric cars into nitro classes provided they meet standard requirements. These large events will eventially have a 1/8 electric truggy class, just as they added a 1/8 buggy class this year. It's nice in many ways to run against the nitro's but when it comes down to the 30+min mains.. the 3x10min format keeps long battery swaps from being a huge factor in the outcome of the race. If you don't have enough racers for a fun class, you just deal w/ the battery swaps and hope for the best :) I picked up two 6500 35c hyperion packs for racing this year and I have one 9000mah SMC pack to help reduce swaps to just 1 per long event... the 9k 4s pack will just make it for a 20min main, anything longer requires a swap out (maybe 2 for a 45min main)
