Exclamation 2wd & 4wd also Mod & Stock Identity

It has been suggested that all racers Mark there cars with the colour of "Roof" as per the classes.
To put it simply 2wd would have a white wing and 4wd would have a yellow wing.
The same would apply to GT12(Mardave/superstox) Red wing or roof for Mod and Blue wing or roof for Stock.

This would help when racing because you would know if a faster car was coming to overtake and its a car that you do not necessarily have to race against.

What do you all think ?

you would be better putting cars in heats that are doing within 3 laps of each other to stop people having to be lapped 5 or 6 times in a heat

Yeah stock and modified aren't really much different in speed. Should be separated in ability, which it already is

The idea of having a 1s lipo and a 13.5 brushless motor is to keep it at the same top end speed as a brushed mardave motor with 4 cells.
As long as you keep your esc in blinky mode so you can not alter the timing they are of the same ability.
In the last series i was useing brushless and the likes of dan,dobs and kev had brushed and they were just as fast if not faster.
The one advantage of brushless with lipo is less maintenance and they are more consistant.
So i agree with gavin it is all down to ability
