did i read someplace that the Brodak 15 is no longer legal in Brodak clown

john e. holliday:
I don't know why people can't leave events alone when they seem to be getting entries.   I remember the Wichihawks of Wichita KS started the Goldberg Shoestring races.   The one rule I liked was entrant had to fly their own entry.  At different times they would have the pit man start for other people.  They even had it where one time the pit stop was done by the next pit man on the circle.  They had as many as ten or more entries.  Ringmasters were allowed until you got a Shoestring ready.   The Fox 35 stunt was only engine allowed.  Then when it opened up to other engines because people did not like the Fox.   I remember having 1400 lap race at Pawnee Rock one year.   Now people want to allow other planes in the Brodak Clown race with other engines.   If one wants to run any plain bearing 15 do it.   I don't see why the Brodak 15 should not be allowed other than people don't want to run them.  Of course I think we have too many racing events now as well as a few other events.   Surprised no one has started an only electric event.

Motorman:
Don't the Brodak people control the Brodak rules? Doesn't seem logical they would ban their own engine. Stranger things have happened like the engine weight rule in TQR.

Electric racing would be interesting.

   It's still listed on the Brodak website as a legal engine for Clown racing.

If memory serves...the weight limit in TQR was to keep out the HB .40 PDP engine.
