my other question would be to that
4 this weekend, moving to 6 regulary, can the club afford to turn £20 to £30 down in race fee's for not allowing lipo?

Plus the others such as chris who wont go?

honestly im not sure i can understand the rules of club, allow ib4200 which have record of damging items and people, not allow lipo which dont have saftey failures within the brca sections using them?

ps we all have our lipo bags for worksop so would use them if need be?

it's all in there guys.

It's down to the commitee whether too allow Lipos or not, and for some reason they have decided against the idea even though some of them still ran them at the club?
Now I don't know why this is, but they have decided. and rules are rules i'm afraid.
Unless there has been an update in the past week?
Sorry guys.

johnboy · #13 15-09-2008

andy there is no rule anywhere saying lipo's are not allowed . word of mouth i feel isnt good enough to go by.

Some of us have a Lipo only car now mate. Others may only have Lipo's to run at club level only - not doing regionals, such as me this winter.

Yes I have cells still, and they fit my 2wd, but I want to/need to run my Cat SX.

was just saying, if york dont allow them then they dont allow them end of,
Im not trying to upset people, i didnt know that people had bought cars that only take lipo's, if i've upset any1 then i appologize but you do have to respect the clubs wishes after all you really have to be thankfull that there's a club to go to with such a good and large venue, with so many clubs struggerling n all,
Sorry Chris

I really don't believe what I read on here sometimes.

Does a club have to have a rule book printed and given out to every member? Would you like to do it?

So the word of a committee member is not good enough then? Maybe you would like to take my place at the AGM - I'll put you forward for it.
