What do you think will happen then? There are several teams who use and have used the Toyota engines.....but only one team has dominated. Oddly....it's the same team that won races when they had Chevys and when they had Esslingers and when they had Fontanas and when they MoPars. Something tells me it's not just the engines. Trust me....95% of the guys racing aren't a motor rule and tire change away from being a hero.

You are very correct. Attention to detail, chassis set up, and talented drivers are what is required for victory. These top teams are going to win day in and day out. Those new Chevy's and Mo Par's motors weren't no slouches.
I have set my sites a little lower and I think perhaps there are a lot of other people that do not wish to race in or with the top echelon of racers. Why not develop a class that also prohibits these very high tec motors and allows racers to race with maybe only sacrificing a finger instead of an arm and leg.
Harold is very close to the formula at Montpelier. But in racing there will always be somebody that will sacrifice a lot of money to win a very small prize.
