    And that's why there are horses of different colors. The NASA system may appeal to some. But it is a complicated system. I looked at it and decided that it would be too complex to decide what change would give me the most speed for the weight.

    Not saying either system is right or wrong, just different. It is up to us to be able to explain the advantages/disadvantages of each and why we made the decisions we did, to seduce potential newbies to our side. For me, it was the relative simplicity of the rules.

    If I wanted to race a supercharged Borgward, I would probably go to NASA.

    Nitrous on your supercharged Borgward? I was thinking about tubbing out my Isabella and running it in SPO.
