*looks at Super5000 car*
.............Seriously?

If I want to see old-school looking cars, there's the historic racing. I'd rather see the FT5000 car than this - preferably with an airbox designed for efficiency instead of one designed solely to be a throwback.
I want to see a MODERN incarnation of Formula 5000, not a throwback. So while I'd still like to see them both work(hey, I may not prefer it but any new form of racing is ultimately fine by me if they can make it work), if I had to make a chose, I'd support FT5000.
And don't give me the "low drag/downforce" excuse for the Super5000 car; Modern aero can do that just as well, probably better.

Unless they want the series to be Australia's equivalent to IndyCar, which I'm not sure anyone can make happen, I think any modern F5000 series needs to run a stock block engine to be viable.
