That's true. But, if you think that timed motor runs don't do the
same you're mistaken. We always want to launch as fast and high as
possible. Been there, done that.

The new "unlimited motor run" rules work very well, with each pilot
using as much or as little motor run as he deems necessary. Duration
score begins when the motor is shut off, just like a winch event. This
format encourages lower launch heights and is much more of a thermal
contest.
Just my $.02
