I never did. The thing that I bang my head against the wall on this is that no one (including you Mr Moore) ever seems to provide what they think is their definitive solution to the problem. Oh you hint about tires or bodywork or this and that but none of it really gets to the heart of the problem. The motor is the single biggest expense in the stupid things.

My solution? Only allow cheaper motors. The easiest way to put it would be that you have to be able to buy it over the counter at any new car dealer. Preferably the motor was actually used in a production car. Mr Lewis could still go buy his brand new over the counter but you should also be able to jerk a used one out of a Neon in the junkyard and have it be the same basic motor. The motor would need to be homologated by the sanctioning body and only motors that came in 1000?/10000?/???? production cars would be allowed. The car manufacturers would still have a vested interest in promoting the sport and perhaps have an interest in putting money in. It would still be a bear to police because people could still put unobtanium rods in the thing. My response to that would be to put in an effective claimer rule.

Yep, I can hear you howling. Yes, I just junked 5-6 figures worth of motors in your garage. Do I care? No. You know why? Because you too were part of the problem because you and the other midget owners have spent years chasing the Lewis' of the world like lemmings. You guys brought it on yourself so why should you be put in charge of fixing it? You honestly think you'll do a better job filling the hole back in than you did digging it?

As I've said all along, the only way to fix this is through a lot of car owner's pain and rev limiters, tires and bodywork changes aren't going to make this patient all better.
