I just don't like the way people keep on going on about them being illegal when they aren't, it's like complaining that the BRCA retro class are all running on illegal tyres because most of them are using the kit F109 rears.
For most clubs in the US the pan car rims are illegal. There are some that allow them but not that many. True they are not illegal by any national or international sanctioning body...but F1 tends to more run along club rules rather than national rules.
