Ill put my hand up and admit to making the comment about mods to a robot being a minor cost factor in competing abroad. It was not meant to cause offence merely to highlight another viewpoint, I apolgise if you felt offended. Bear in mind that many struggle to finance the building and running of a robot within the UK, why should they have to face the need to upgrade to have fun and remain competitive in the UK just so that a few can travel further afield?

It really isnt all that unusual to have different rulesets for different continents in motorsports. Why do we feel such a pressing need to have one ruleset for all countries in our sport?

There are IMHO far bigger issues facing the sport but wed better not go there as I caused far to much offence last time I raised my concerns ;(
