I won't address the rule as many logical points on both sides. In addressing the underlying issue of making non-wing racing (specifically USAC) more fan friendly while at the same time carving out an even bigger niche to set it apart from others; I would submit the following. Remove the extra sheet metal which has shown up in recent years, i.e. cockpit enclosures, and fill-in on cages. Take a look at old Dick Wallen video of Terre Haute with cars exiting turn 4; Opperman, Pancho, etc. sawing away on the wheel. Plenty of great stills by others showing the same. It is time to reintroduce the human factor back into the fans perception particularly since racing of our type is often driven by identifying with personalities as opposed to brands.
