Why would anybody be offended by trying to revive a lost sport! Call it what you want. I like comp jet! As for the 80 mph & all those that think it is lame! Don't knock it until you try it! I raced the jets in the nostalgia endurance deal & it was a blast & very challenging. A great way for newbies to get involved with out spending their life savings... As for all the peeps that are too cool to be limited by speed & would rather take shots at the program, I will say its your loss...
i didn't knock anything, didn't call anything lame, didn't take any shots. perhaps you should read the post before running off on a rant.
all i stated was that the true "comp jet" class had, and still has, established rules, was extremely competitive 30+ years ago, and this is different than the true "comp jet" class. no one's going to knock anything that is going on with this deal, i wouldn't mind running it myself if i had the time. all i'm saying is that there should be some sense of the history of the class, and what it was really about, which wasn't a speed limit.
kind of like limiting a k-boat to a weiand on a 350. isn't quite the same thing.
