The Way to fix Stock is for the top 3 or 5 to move up a class thus giving the others the opportunity to improve.
Control motor may it be fixed timing or not and a fixed FDR gearing will not solve anything.
The way I see it, control motors aren't about changing who wins. They're about reducing the costs involved in the motor-of-the-month wars. I'm happy finishing mid pack as long as I feel I drove well, but I'm not happy about having to buy a new motor every year just to maintain mid pack status and avoid being passed on the straights. The new ROAR rules might be sufficient to address that though.
