yet you race a pancar which has virtually gone stale of development and you have fun i assume? i think the hobby would be more fun if costs were controlled to the point that more people could get into the hobby and stay i the hobby.... i don't think it's a coincidence that the hay-day of the hobby was when the cars cost less to buy, and run...
