4 cell is an investment in the future to make sure that the guys running stock now will have a class running at a similar speed in 1-2 years.

Listen to the oval guys. They have been through all this already and have come out the other side in much better shape.

The problems guys are having with all of this is a fear of change issue not a slower or faster speed issue.
We have seen how 4-cell worked in Japan (poorly). And have yet to see how 5-cell works in Europe. So why make a decision so soon? Why not wait and see the 5-cell results and make a decision based on what actually happens in real world races.
