.......seems that the "leccies" have one for their brushed and brushless motors, so why not a section for the nitro & gas heads?

The choice in I/C nitro manufacturers is getting smaller these days - if you can find a engine stockist. Seems that there are more model shops closing down each day. {:-{

What is the other option
It would be nice to have a I.C section as Race,Power,Sports and Leisure Boats is a very generalised catergory and not the easiest to find information in.
A place to discuss engine set up,tuning,conversions etc

Would you be interested in a dedicated I.C section ?
If so voice your opinion here http://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=28824.msg284134#msg284134 and with a bit of luck Martin will provide us with a section where information is easy to find and we can discuss I.C engines to our hearts content

Well, if Martin willnot provide a section on Nitro and Gassers then how about http://www.flyingsites.co.uk/forum/index.php?board=5.0 (http://www.flyingsites.co.uk/forum/index.php?board=5.0) as a reference point. OK it is for flyers but it looks useful.

There wasn't enough support for a completely separate IC section but it's all still here under:

 Race, Power, Sports and Leisure Boats
