I think Freaky maybe needs a time out here

But he has a point - if people are going to travel long distances then we need a level playing field, and like it or not Tamiya got there first.
I used to have my tanks set up so that you needed to be very accurate, but once I joined a club that was a liability - its no fun if the other guys can hit you but you can't hit them, and to suggest that everyone spends $25 on a laser to make things better is a non starter. Not to mention that any mention of the word "Laser" would send our insurance company heading for the hills. No insurance, no events.
