Spec electronics are the way to police it, I think. Let the FIA hire someone (Delphi, Visteon?) to design a system that can be adapted to all the engines in the series which simply doesn't have the capacity for things like launch and traction control and automatic shifting. I think that needs to be the direction in all series, rather than simply legalizing things. It's extremely detrimental to the sport, as much in it's spirit as the actual on-track performance. F1 drivers today... I won't argue how much skill it takes, but they don't have nearly as much to think about when they're racing as they used to.
