Jake's consipiracy theory #18F: The largest stakeholders will be the most reluctant to change.

The people with most to lose, are the ones that benefit most from the status quo. Look around any paddock and see what I mean. You'll quickly find CRX's, 325i's, and other "car-to-have's" with $30-$40,000 invested. Not many people with uncompetitive cars are going to invest that type of money into theirs. I would guess that those with that much cash into their cars are going to be reluctant to any change at all (even if it totally logical).
