So that leaves clubs who want to try and slow things down out in the cold (this is just about GT12 racing, not off-road or Touring Cars). There were some interesting ideas put forward but it seems it failed to get past through. Seems the BRCA needs to rethink what the aim of the organisation is - is it about supporting the hobby of RC racing and nurturing new blood, or is it about supporting top flight RC racing... Maybe a topic for another thread one day

Scott im going to pull you up here. as my post 14 on this topic!!

firstly the BRCA 12th section did not miss a trick, the BRCA do NOT make the rules, the racers present at the egm make them after discussion and votes. the BRCA then enforce them.
there IS also a slower class and as post 14 production cup is now 17.5, a slower motor class, while super cup remain 13.5. you also need to be aware that the 17.5 became a class due to a club introducing it at their club, which proved popular and grew. something your club can do the ONLY part of the rules your club need to follow from the brca hand book is general rules, any class you race can have rules set by the club, not the brca.
