Thinking that any major manufacturer will join a class that is not electric or at least hybridized is fanciful as well, though, and even hybrids will just be a stopgap solution for a few seasons.

One answer to that situation is to run the type of power units that manufacturers demand, but I think series like SC are better off going their own way without manufacturer involvement.
