Re: Mardave brushless / chassis NOW WITH A POLL
I just dont see the point in over regulating Rules like dictating on how many holes you have in your Chassis, its crazy?
As long as the Car is atleast 1000g, you should be allowed as many holes as you like!

I was at the AGM this year to get BL voted in to run along side brushed @ Nationals for Oval racing.Gazza wrote:I think most club rules are still around the 540 motor (G1 or G2 ) what made you get a cheap brushless . . . is this some thing your club allowed or you just wanted to play in car park with4_cell_racer wrote:Gazza wrote:
I personally don't have £95 to splash out on a Mardave system at this present time......thats why I and a few others went for a £50 system
There was NO BL setup fixed to run just a bl class.
Now I don't know about other people BUT I've not had a good Mtroniks speedo in a looooong time (which is where the Mardave system is coming from!) and on Sunday the Committee met up to discuss what system to use etc....and what they decided was to allow any BL speedo (NO mention of motor size!) that had reverse with a MAX price of £65
I don't mind everyone running the same motor ie the Mtroinks one from Mardave
I like these rules for the Mod
BRUSHLESS/MODIFIED V12 CLASS
1000g Weight

Mardave Brushless Motor

Mardave Brushless Speed Controller Maybe change that to any BL speedo with a price limit???

Re: Mardave brushless / chassis NOW WITH A POLL
had a reply from chris ( mr mardave) and his comments are below
Diff will only be an add on not kit spec, no plans for chassis change and defo not carbon
Keep diff to open class and kit spec cars to clubmans racing
will try and get other clubs involved
Chris
so with this in mind i propose that we run the 2 classes as
STANDARD V12 CLASS
1000g Weight
Std V12 Suspension Front & Rear
Std Aluminium Chassis
Fixed Axle
G1/G2 Motor
ABS or Lexan Bodyshell(no 12th Shells)
Any Forward & Reverse Speed Controller
BRUSHLESS V12 CLASS
1000g Weight
Std V12 Suspension Front & Rear
Aluminium or Carbon Fibre Chassis (must be v12 shape and commercially available )
Fixed Axle or Mardave Diff
Mardave Brushless Motor
ABS or Lexan Bodyshell(no 12th Shells)
Mardave Brushless Speed Controller
this will be passed to the committee as we need to finalise the rules in time for people to decide there class to race in the next championship, from january.

Re: Mardave brushless / chassis NOW WITH A POLL
hi stox
reponse to your comments are that if you race a diff you must be in the brushless class as not allowed in std mardave and if found running these in std class will be put in the lowest heat and no points.
no diff in brushed cars

Re: Mardave brushless / chassis NOW WITH A POLL
I agree with Tim's last post on the rules, they are nice and concise, but I also think you should allow at least the brushless class to put any holes in the chassis they like. Holes are free, you don't need to pay for them! Just make sure you have everyone adhere to the weight limit...
Cheers,
Scott
