Yes,I have heard that too, particularly the later ones; they do seem to manage them very well in NZ though, where there are loads, and yet they didn’t run them back in the day. Indeed, NZ developed “Schedule S”, later adopted as “Super Production” or Group N Plus by the FIA as their national TC series because they recognised that they could not afford STs, apparently.
