While the costs with the multiple chassis did get high in the height of CART, that was more due to regulations. You can regulate the builders to keep costs down (i.e. not introducing a new model every year like CART), and the fight of the multiple builders is the heart of what happens in the real world, and that is keeping the costs down. You feel you are overcharged for new parts, you say, "F- you", and move to the competitor.
Too bad the people running the show are seemingly not willing enough to take that risk.
