Doesn't it occur that the only true way to create a limitation is for the it to be the battery capacity? With P-ltd records now almost the same as full P due to mod windings in stock cans, it is the amount of power available that creates the only limitation. If you had a max of 6000mah instead of 10,000 mah there would be a limit on how much power, therefore speeds, costs to a class etc. Limiting the motors that could be used has failed over time, limiting the can size has a fail, in that those who can mod, or afford to mod a motor gain a massive power advantage.
It always comes back to who has the biggest checkbook, or spare time/knowledge can out compete what should be an entry level but competitive class that depends most on driving ability/skill and boat setup. Classes that should be for fun and getting people hooked on the hobby. As soon as there are those that are unbeatable and cannot be reasonably competed against people lose interest.
Just my 0.02 from afar.
