It as been some contact with people around, to do something about speed on team race!  

This is very important,  almost everyone agree the speed is high, and something must be done!
 Must be something simple, and in the opinions we get so far the most simple is reduce from 3 to 2 up fly!
We can not continue break models this fast, and we will not mension the advantage of this solution, simply because is so simple and brings so mucth advantage to the sport that shoud be allready implemented to 2008.
Only remain the question of the semis and final, and we are open to sugestions, but for now and to start the basic is ,  2 finals for 4 teams , the 3 best take the place, or excepconaly 3 up in the final!
One thing that we have look in all competions,  donīt like see 2 up , but when happens all, repet all, say, "" Uff "" , Everyone wants a luck of 2up fly,that is the point!!!!!!
The folow benefits is just a matter to think!!!!
-The Speed can increase, no aditional Problem!
-The Jurys can view better all and diceide better!
- The matter of wind no longer problem to 3 choise ( and everyone knows that you have 50% of a good race when you have the 3 choise because of the wind)
- The problems with landings it will be reduce!
- Only 2 Jurys for a event!
- Old and new competitors ( pilots) can fly!
-Almost all rules can be folow, not at the moment!
- The crash models will be less, or almost inexistent!
- Will not have the advantage of some teams have the luck of fly 2 up! It will be for all!!
- If necesary, we can increase to 3 stops to more show,minimize this matter, with no aditional problems
- Etc.....
The only Item manteine oposite , on this matter is;   we donīt like to see ..... so mutch, but well, who is going to see, and who is see this???!!
There is also another ideas , please tell, and make your proposal, untill 15 November to enter in Fai !
The second idea most apear is , reduce venturi to 3.5, or 4mm, but also many people say that in 1 year the speed will go up again!
We prefer more speed and 2up, for the moment!!!! Simple and practice!
Open to sugestions, please, donīt make sugestions to increase money value on this sport or big work on the models, or anything similar, make sugestions simple and low cost!!!!!!!!
 
To all, José Goulao, Antonio Mortinho, Antonio Cardoso.
  
Ps. We all must find also a standart fuel for everyone to stop the logistic problems current in this sport!

Hi to all Again. 
 
For all the reactions we receive so far, it seems, there is a lot of opinions for a small solution!
 
The maiority does not want to fly 2 up, others say , the speed is not hight and we are capable to mantein, also we need new pilots new people for our sport , etc...., around only 30% say maybe the solution is fly 2up!
 
For the people want to mantein 3 up( and not do something about), we say, why not 4, as it was some time ago, it will bring again lots of adrenaline, why that time they reduce 3 up, the speed was  hight , ohh , donīt tell us.....they have lost adrenaline that time....poor guys....
 
Sorry the irony, but for the guys mension new pilots and new people, we say, Sorry but not avaiable!!! ( it comes a few drops every 10 years)!!!! Tendence to stop!
 It needs substanciale time invested witch we donīt have.
It needs a retired person in a club,( in a place that have kids around), wicht we donīt have. I
It needs, have no family sons etc, witch we have, need to be rich ( or close), to get good equipment and facilites, circle instalations etc, wicht in Portugal enexistent,( more, in Portugal for the moment the ambientalist donīt want noise near and nothing that kills a single grass).( Circles, what is that?? Sport?? Are you insain??)
It needs 2 Persons live close to practique, or with time to travel if they live far, ... all can imagine,... or not.... , we must stop, simply not continue to bring more items!
 That is the point, this sport is formula 1, but, we donīt win money, and we all must understand, this sport will never be a mass people, who are thinking in diferant idea , is dreaming!
I know people that to mantein this running, travels more then 1000km or close, or sometimes more, only to practique, Australia, Eua, etc..., this is the way, even in Eua ,  with so mutch human potencial,and where born the control-line , why does not come more young people!?!?! They are stupid!!!!!!!We donīt think so!!
Around 50 % or 60% of teams around the world is ; they are brothers, they live close, it sons of some f2c player!!!! This is something, or not!!!!!! The few that are not in this items, hower sincere respect!!!!!!!
Sorry, but tell  we need to retired the old pilots and bring new ones to suport this current speeds is no argument, i like a sport that brings young and still manteine old people, and the guys that are defending that old people must retired,  if they have the luck to live untill there , will be pass the same shame that we are saying to old pilots!
 
For us here and some people around the argument that 2up is not f2c , is prattle, most of the competions we enter allways have races 2up, Kramarenko bit twice the record  single man only. 2up is not racing, hum, we belive soon  will have more and more problems if we not do something and the courage to change!
 
Two things remain, or the change is reasonable, or the aditional cost of some bad rule, that even get faraway the people enveloved! Old and new!
 
We around defend:
 MORE SPEED, AND 2UP!
 3UP , NEEDS LESS SPEED, ( with rules simple, and no aditional cost)
 
Realy push that the solution  reach a good way, for all, king regards from F2c players in Portugal!
