I have spent the morning reading all about the accident to Steve Enneper. I do not know him but I am sure he is all that has been said. My wishes for a quick recovery are foremost.
I do not race and I am ignorant to the rules and requirements required for racing.
My question is this:
Is a fail Safe unit required to run in any race?
This $20 item could have shut down the engine the moment it lost its signal and may have saved a great deal of pain and suffering. (personal and financial)
I have always used these on my R/C Cars, and since I have gotten in the boats, The fail safe units come with me. The safety of people and property could be increased by the requirement of this unit.
If this has been a long standing "must have" for racing, I apologize for my ignorance, but I have not read anything about its use being mandatory.
