You guys are getting into a dangerous zone here, LOL.
There are some instances where the rules could be written in such a way as to produce a more economical result for some, but there are always things that seem like a good idea, but then are shown to be more....or less than expected.
It is my opinion that consideration to expense is given in the rules writing process, and that rules are crafted where possible to result in a "point of diminishing returns" manner. In other words, some rules are written that allow you to spend a gazillion dollars to go far beyond what most will do, but will only return 1/10th of a second in lap time. Yes, I am aware of the argument that in a popular class, there will be those who will take the option and spend the money, which forces others to, but it is very difficult to control spending in racing or nearly any competition. If the cost can be crafted to far outstrip the reward, then we are most of the weay there.
And look what happens when we try, LOL. Case in point: The suspension bushing/SB issue. A rule that existed for years, and about which reasonable men differed. So the CRB was asked: "What do you REALLY mean by this? Did you want SBs to be allowed?" And they said "Yes". So the rule gets a 'clarification', and then the mounting of the SBs is addressed. Again, the CRB decided that it was an easier and more affordable solution to allow simple tackwelds to retain the SBs, rather than requiring expensive 'cassettes' and other pricey solutions.
So, going in we had guys spending lots of money on machined delrin solutions, and making sleeves that are heat/chill contraction fits (guys like me) and spending lots of money to do so to meet the letter of the rule, when $30 SBs were available. And coming out, the solution is cheaper, faster and easier, and results in no incrreased performace on the track than what was had previously.
But......some very wise and bright observers have pointed to that rule change as the unraveling of the category, and a point in time from which nothing will be the same. A virtual opening of the Pandoras box.
So...point of all this? It's not as simple as it seems, and there is considerable disagreement as to the need for a solution.
