It is far from safe to add weight to a car, have you ever seen a car in a hard crash & that weight go flying into the grandstands? I have & luckily nobody was injured that time, these chassis are not designed to have large amounts of weight bolted to them either & I have seen tubes ripped out of the chassis in hard crashes because of it. I don't know what your hard on is for titanium or carbon fiber either if you have a weight rule? I understand cost cutting & trying to further the sport but when you create a huge rule book that isn't necessary & teching after the races that takes longer than the entire night of racing you are not going to bring people into the sport. I have no issues with the stock engine rule if there can be an easy way to tech them, I however do have a problem with some idiot taking my motor apart at the end of the night when he doesn't know up from down.

this is all about cost cutting but I haven't seen anybody say anything about eliminating the $3000 shock's, we can talk about buying a titanium bolt that will last just about forever but god forbid we talk about the shocks that get torn off anytime you crash!
