the idea of a penalty for being a motor-glider is absurd. an asg29e does not get an additional handicap penalty because it has a motor last i checked.
the idea that a motor somehow provides an advantage is subjective fantasy.. no other motor-glider gets a penalty for being a motor-glider alone. again this logic is absurd. but please, show us your examples.

I don't know where you have been the last 29 years, but the first sports class nationals was in 1985 and mg/sustainer versions have always had higher handicaps than pure gliders. Read the hc list first and then comment. ASG29e is .01 higher than ASG29. The additional wingloading is the advantage, not the motor, and these HC's have been working very well for a long time.
