Really ? The spec (or P-Limited) classes specify certain motors. If, say, I was going for a 2-lap record at a NAMBA sanctioned race I'd know through testing what the most agressive prop I could run before melting the motor leads on a stock/spec motor. Then someone shows up with modded wires to allow a more agressive, faster prop. He goes faster and gets the record. The idea behind P-Ltd classes is to have motor parity, as best as possible.
In the now defunct LSO class, section 28/g/jjj/vi of the NAMBA rules state : " No modifications may be made to the motor. Except for normal wear, it must be run as shipped from the manufacturer."
In the Electric 1/10 Scale Unlimited Hydroplane class in NAMBA (which allows Himax HB3630-1500,Blackjack A3630-1500, or AQ 36/56), 28/C/iv/b states : "No modifications may be made to the motor. Except for normal wear, drive flats or keys,electrical connectors, and water cooling, it must be run as shipped from the manufacturer."
I don't have the rules for P-Limited motor specs but I suspect it will follow the 1/10 class specs.
I await further more learned input.
