Dodecahedrons.....I really think we have done a lot to advance the sport but there are deff things that we could work on....the hydrotec stuff for instance shows a lot of potential but I think it needs picked up by a main manufacturer to take off.
Actually its not that short sighted, Yes in the highly developed and highly technical minds of members of this forum it might be but as a whole our sport is filled with morons and inexperienced players, you want to help our sport grow and be more main stream don't require people to have an advanced physics degree to load paintballs into their hoppers and an engineering degree to maintain their equipment. The racing world is a really bad example of this as well. They have entire divisions, classes and events solely for un-modified cars.
'True' stock car racing, which consists of only street vehicles that can be bought by general public, is sometimes now called Street Stock, Pure Stock, Showroom Stock, or U-Car racing. In 1972, SCCA started its first showroom stock racing series, with a price ceiling on the cars of $3,000. Some modern showroom stock racing allows safety modifications done on showroom stock cars. *wiki entry
