30? years ago nascar figured out to push the factories/cars aside and make the drivers the "stars", since they could be controlled. Nascar wants the "easy" solution, make the most money for the least effort, 3rd generation Frances have gotten lazy, and listening/refereeing each week which car make had an advanatge was to much work for them therefore, COT.

Fixes are easy and very cost effective:
a. Factory Sheet Metal, a lot cheaper and better for the fans
b. Sponsor decals on say less the 50% of car, I like to see the car
c. 93 octane gas, cheaper, and helps the average driver's car engine get refined
d. 7 liters OK, they sound meaner
e. 1 Air Wrench over the pit wall, cut out frivolous pit stops
f. No lucky Dog nonsense, enough said
g. Control speeds by choosing tire widths on a track by track basis, a race on 7" tires is just as good as one on 10.5" tires, and it will keep ALL the teams searching for the right balance/handling package, drivers get to use the gas pedal as they see fit, rather putting a brick on it.
h. And NO plates, see g. above


NEVER HAPPEN

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
