Tony C should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I love the idea of the full course 40 zone for marshal safety and quick clean up, and no allowance for team tactics to influence the outcome, but at tracks like Bathurst it could cause other problems by trying to get the cars up the cutting while running on the pit limiter. I dont know if they could do it.

I am not exactly sure of the ratios in the current gearbox but based on pre COTF info if the cars were restricted to 1st gear only during FCY at Bathurst, at 5400 RPM they would be doing about 80kph. 5400 would allow them to climb the cutting easily and safely (not stalling). This rev/speed limit could apply to the entire track except where the incident is which could be a 40 zone controlled by the pit limiter.

Would this be an agreeable compromise?
