I cant believe I've only seen one other post picking up on the fact that Evolution Engines no longer lists the 35 on their website, and now shows a 40 in its place. Is anyone wondering what this will mean to the Sundowner spec class USRA racing? Will guys looking to join the class be forced to try to locate a no-longer-produced 35 engine in stock somewhere or will current 35 owners be forced to buy into the new 40? And will the class be changed to accept the new Evo 40 at all? Either way something will have to change. Opinions???
I had got into a very heated debate with some of hte GIant scale racing board members on trying to increase the size to a 40cc a year ago....
Looks like they will have to update the rule book again or perhaps they will just leave it as is....
I have a Lightweight 40cc just waiting to go into this one if they would just give it a go-ahead........
The ZDZ 40F3A would just decimate most anything else ... Light as a 26cc..... so you would still retain the wonderfull flying you get with the Evolution 26.... but musch more exciting to fly.....
But if H9 will not change there specks to include 40cc.... The Giant scale racing association just may be too concerned with being sued if someones wings fold and puts a hole
threw someones helmet.!!!!!! Can you blame them??/
It is interesting to see those guys make it clear that it isn't Sundowner scale racing it is Giant scale racing, yet the Sundowner class was one of the largest classes they have had in years....
