I did say later that if put in the position to tech them I would use the recent proposal from Dave to keep the playing field even for the guys racing what they felt were legal cells when they opened their wallets. Then I would NOT have to deny someone an opportunity to race.
I've raced, hosted, and CD'd races for about 13 years now I think. Some pretty big too. I've denied one guy a chance to race ever. I've even let a guy switch boats half way through a days heats because his boat was wrecked. Made him get approval from the guys he was racing. Just to make sure he had a chance to race. Done that a couple time. Hell, I even collected motors, speedo, and a radio to put in a new guys boat to keep a him racing. This notion that the MMEU is all up tight and rules will be jammed down your throat is totally bogus nonsense from haters. Those that can do. Those that can't hate.
I'll try this one more time. I give zero F's about Revo. None. Other than the fact they lie about their products I don't care. That is not my problem. It does bother me a bit that the greatest proponent of Revo prefers to discredit those that noticed that they are lying. "Talking points" is funny. Readers of this thread are to believe that the discrepancies between the HV data sheets, the labels on the surface, the labels under the surface, and the information from RevoJohn don't mean anything. They're to believe it's just a result of myself and somebody behind the green curtain (I guess) trying to keep Revo itself out of racing.
The fact that an entry at the NATS was not protested does not set a precedence. There is no such thing as "precedence" in NAMBA or IMPBA. Please read the damned rule books. Either of them. If you're reading this thread you clearly have the capacity.
Also, if any or all of the rules suck then by all means.........make your own. If you're right the people will "make it so number 1". If some had not gotten involved many moons ago the "legal" cells would be Nicd and we would be running brushed 05 motors. Or.............just complain about the rules. That always makes them better.
It appears to me you started a thread to attempt to slam revo again instead of asking legit questions....at least that looks like your motive to me. Dont like em, dont buy em....simple.
