I'm curious, let's say the theory is true that racers just want to handicap the pros in mod so they have a glimmer of hope at beating them (not that the attraction of running the same class as the pro's could have anything to do with the success of offroad mod I'm sure.)

Does that mean we continue the course of this Titanic of a class until it crashes into the iceberg so a few can claim a moral victory through attrition... they were able to run the class long enough, combined with superior ability to control open mod, until all desire was lost from the average Joe to even attempt it?Haven't we achieved that already? Looking at the past few years of big-race open mod entries I think I could argue a valid "yes".

I just don't see any positives from leaving it as it is, nor have I seen anyone present a logical positive outcome with that strategy.
