My standard is a .2g bb fired at 400 fps. Scores hits on all brands and all IR systems and does not descriminate. Turning the turret a bit is no defense at all.

Of course those comments are made in jest and typed up as I sit here soldering on my DBC.

It seems the charge towards a standard is the correct direction but it's too bad that it's an antiquated standard that even it's supporters find fault in. Kinda like standardizing on the best videotape format at this point. It's the best out there now with the broadest support base.

I think there is a place for the SLU though. Remember that there are many in this hobby, and I would postulate the majority, who do not participate in club battles. I live so far from them that it isn't a reality. I think for a lot of us the scenario is that you own a couple of IR tanks and you have friends/family that come over and play in your back yard with you. Remember the brass ring for many of us is to not go to Danville and battle, it's the fun we have on a daily basis at home.
