I agree.  Limiting the displacement is one thing, but why the number of 
cylinders?   This where  advances in engine design were made.  Don't see how 
everyone having 4 cyl engines helps the "Pinnacle of Technology" scenario?

Maybe we can just use old Formula Vee and call them F1?  4 cyl engines, 
sealed of course, fixed suspension design, - what's free for the designers? 
Hmm... the paint job, perhaps?  They'll have a field day - probably develop 
some new technology -

road Ferrari's before we know it....

I wonder what kind of gas mileage a Super V gets?

I think I'll concentrate on ALMS when those new rules come into effect.

First we lost the sweet sounds of the  V-12's, then the V-10's, and now the
V-8's . Turbos will make the Turbo 4's sound like the poser Nissan 350 Z's
running around town with fart cans on the exhaust.

How depressing.
