Well... In some things we think the same... lately (at least on the past 5 or 6 years) EFRA has been doing some stupid things trying to 'equalize' or at least to slow some costs associated with racing. Many years ago was the biggest stupidity with the infamous 12 turn limit on Touring cars who opened the doomed 'search for the n milivolt more on the batts', later was the 7mm crank bore and the 'turbo scoop' that in few days, deemed illegal almost all the .12 engines that were on the market (and of course, the need of buying new engines).

I'm not a newbie on this... in fact if you can search on the Team Orion forums, you can see some posts made by me regarding this. EFRA sometimes should look farther than their own belly and try to being in the same line of other blocks (ROAR, FAMAR, FEMCA,....)
