If you can't use qualifying or race results as an indicator, then it would seem as though there is little need for changes.

Surprise...

It's the same NASCAR mentality of tweaking this and tweaking that in case someone might get an upper hand....

Sorry, but I hate "contrived competition".....

My guess is that the cars that were running better last year (the DPs with Porsche engines) are getting their doors blown off by the Lexus and Pontiac engines....

J.C drives a porsche-powered car, doesn't he??????


I agree with fogelhund....if results are any kind of indicator, then leave the rules alone...

and the point about cost considerations is another one....to "convert" an engine like that will be very expensive for teams that are running them....

This is a stupd move on Grand Am's part....very stupid...
