The question is why..?

It's not to go faster. And the idea is not to help ME. I can make wood as good as anybody. I have also done one 1:00 minute times with the plastic, however, my low times were all done with the original version. Not the 7.4x8.0 version. Which is neither here nor there...

The idea is simply to help keep costs down. Which I believe is the reason for passing the original rule? What happens across the country is the majority of people can NOT pull the prop over 23k. Now you add some humidity to the mix and you now have 21,5k. To me, that is simply unacceptable.....

I'm sure this idea has nothing to do with Muncie (at least from my stand point). This would possibly allow the beginner to buy a used plane/motor and have a choice of props for which his "used" motor will operate. And not be stuck the one prop that is to heavy. He could carve his own wood, or spend $35 bucks on a wood prop, but the rule was passed to help avoid this?.. That would put the beginner right back in the same situation we existed in before the original rule was developed.

Maybe my reasoning is not valid? But maybe with a selection, the emphasis on always having a "fresh" bullet would go away.
