Electric/Air Shifters

This has long been a topic of discussion within our Index Classes.  At this point in time, we DO NOT permit the use of electric or air shifters in our Index Classes.  Some feel that this deters potential racers from joining the series, while others feel that the series has grown and is still growing without the use of these shifters, and should be left as it has been for the past 3 seasons. 

We would like your feedback on this topic.

Do you feel prohibiting electric/air shifters deters racers from running our series?

Please know that this feedback is important, however the results of this poll do not mean a rule change will go into effect in 2013.  THANK YOU
