waiting for the pile on wrt to series costs and interchangeability of parts...and only the well-heeled with have access to wind tunnels etc etc etc

and Ohhhh by the way...if it can work for Historic F1 why not S5000?

Since the problem most open classes have is blowout of costs. The only way thiscould happen is if you said - If you want to win, you have to get a S5000 as it is. However, if you can make a less expensive version that is comparable but couldn't win or podium (Unless it was a particularly talented driver in the wet).

That way you can still compete in a national level class on tv, and trade off being an underdog,
