Hey knighty, about the ridiculously small air restictors in GT1 favoring low reving engines as of nature. What happend to the electronic restrictors FIA tested at the end of the 2005 FIA-GT season in the Ferrari 550? And what exactly was those restrictors? It was ment to save costs as with this little air they are getting now the engines needs to be rebuilt quite frequently, and they cost so much to develope, so (basicly) unlimited air but electornic restictors would save costs and make it easier for peformance balancing. And also, it would take away the unfair advantage of naturally low reving engines.
Why did this die out? I though the test was successful!
