I agree with Chris and Tom,
Jimmy I'm sure you are wrong, when we started running brushless you had to run ones that were on the list, I remember Derek Brady explaining the point at every regional at drivers briefing (who wasn't listening ). At scruitineering for any regional we should by rights have the homologation cells and motors list and check all cars. We don't as a rule but that's on the basis people aren't deliberatly running non legal kit. Remember rules help control the fun!

yet the bikes do so at thier brca sanctioned nationals! that leaves little confidence in his thoughts on the matter as i understood it yes they (off road) use the EB rules but they can opt to alter or allow somin at regionals

Although valid, that is a rather daft argument, it isn't that they are non-homolgated, but a known quantity and general construction, plus, if someone is running that gear, they are obviously new.
If a region decides to allow you to run brushless and LiPo, then I hope then enforce the minimum weight limit.

Can we please start reading the rule books, they normally contain the answers While we are reading the rules. 1/10th Off-Road handbook states: 25. BATTERIES 25.1 Cars will be driven by a maximum of six rechargeable cells, which cannot be replaced after a race has started. 25.2 The description, specification and types of rechargeable batteries approved for use in Off-Road Sanctioned events can be found in the section entitled ‘BRCA Electric Board’ (EB). Lipo breaks both them rules, hence cannot be used at sanctioned events, hence cannot be used at regionals, as looking at this rule: 4.1 Off-Road Sanctioned events include the National Championship Series, Regional Championship Series, Indoor Finals, Junior & Veterans’ Championship, British Regional Championship (BRC) and the Inter-Regional F3/F4/F5 Championship. It is possible that further specific events could be sanctioned by the committee. Regionals are a sanctioned event. Last edited by Cockerill; 26-01-2007 at 08:01 PM. |

I'm not in a position to give an official answer but I would assume it becomes a legal motor. Although where you would get a LRP/Nosram sticker from I don't know, because as far as I know no-one imports or sells them. Therefore you would have to have a LRP/Nosram motor to begin with.

Alreet, think the questionings are getting abit silly now, this could go on, and on, and on. Offroad is a civilised place, relaxed as it were.
The questions have been answered, so please don't let the thread drag out with petty questions which we all know the answers to already with abit of common sence. |

Hi Guys,
I missed all the fun!!! But one point missed by all: 6x Sub-C cells = 7.2v Lipo pack = 7.4v Therefore I doubt Lipo will be homoligated for use in the foreseeable future. |

Mark, you well know that, even if you bring another stock/19t/mod motor in, that is already done by someone else, albeit another label, you have to have the motor homologated, careless if it is 'identical' to someone elses brand motor.

there voltage on a pack of good cells is what 1.22-1.23v per cell x6=7.32-7.38volts per pack so your already at the 7.4v marker so where is the difference? cells today have passed there own voltage limit because our cells are worked so much harder to get the most from them lipo is a serious contender. if people want to run them why stop them as there is no advantage in voltage
