The "uber competitiveness" at clubs is a factor that some new starters find uncomfortable and has nothing to do with equipment, but attitude. As I indicated earlier, you can't solve every problem with one initiative, but that doesn't mean you don't start somewhere.

Along with the "deep pockets" attitude that new comers believe they have to spend large amounts of coin to just be competitive.
This is why some clubs are experimenting with their own control motor, fdr, & tire classes (GT, Club Stock, etc). Some may not take off, other concepts may do though, especially if they are budget friendly, the components are easily sourced, and a simple fdr & rpm checker can be employed to make sure everyone is playing fairly.
Addressing a perceived problem from only one end won't solve anything, work from both directions, and a solution may come quicker.
