Was pretty simple to get started in and fairly inexpensive. Then "safety" capsules wrecked the class.Quote:

Did SG simply die out at some point?:eek: I started racing in SJ but if I had known about SG I would have put an 850XS on an SE hull instead. Did the 1500XS and 850XS share the same mid section and gearcase? I would think the 850XS would have used a different gear ratio?Quote:
