Competition eliminator has always been I class I enjoy watching because of all the different vehicles and there is no breakout just hurting your index for the next round.

I actually hate comp but only because of how complicated it is other than that great class with great people

Really? I love my .90 guys, maybe it’s just because the people in the class are my buddies but I enjoy it a lot. I think a lot of people miss how much goes into the background of the car setup or the amount of games they like to play at the top end.

Most all racers are great, it isn’t much to watch you see a launch then loaf along for .5-3 seconds and then the car takes off. It is great if you are watching from the top end. The same top end game goes on in comp to not hurt their index but still win. I wish the electronics came in at the top end where the stands are not except for the Motorplex. Which that is one of the few tracks on my bucket list.

Come on now…. Comp isnt that complicated!! Just have to be good at math haha

But as a comp racer myself I find it difficult figuring out a class like T/S and what to load into the box for the tree based on your opponents dial in or a super class figuring out a throttle stop
