I would like to talk about new vers old

My point was as to the original hypothesis of new against old ,
its tough to make a blanket statement that new or old is better.
Better for what? and where?
That was all..

Htrdlncn,

I agree, I would not put my boat in those conditions on a regular basis, although it has seen its share of 6-8 ft seas in its time. My boat is what is known as a "potato chip" and was specifically designed for the racing of the modern era.

Even today the spec classes are "designed" to put "equal" situations and let it boil down to the skill set of the driver and throttlemen, the P class really isnt racing against competition, it is strictly, who has the most torque at the right range and you compete directly with a computer. It down plays any skills that a driver or throttleman have, you just have to be proficient.

One disagreement with you however, no races are not canceled due to real 6 ft seas, if the choppers can fly, the race goes on.
