i think that it sucks CMB charge what ever they want and the consumer just has to Bear it ...if we are spewing now wait for 5 years ...
Gas is cheaper , Much cheaper , Learn to do the Mods yourself , there is enough people who have put up info on places like Jims boat doc that will allow you to build a gas zenoah that goes hard with an arvo with the dremmel ...
Nitro is a once a month fix for me as the fuel and plugs are incredible expensive ... add to that the possibility of paying 500+ for a 21 motor and Then 900+ if you want something "competative"
itll become a two monthly fix , then a 6 monthly fix .
Then a not at all.
Gas is a usefull format , pump fuel , bigger hulls that take more chop . more user freindly
But
A nitro motor that runs 10% fuel is going to last us much longer than a motor that runs 70% nitro ..
my first boats had old old motors in them and those motors went for years and years ...
pushing motors the way we do now to be competative will limit the No of players that go forward into the future .
Then we got the Manu who has to build an engine that can hold together at these loads is expensive ....
if you got an old 70's ops motor and run it on 70% how long would it last without breaking the rod ???
we have told the companys to make better motors , stronger and Faster , and higher price .
The Fat lady has Nothing to do with it .
