I could not be more against that. Where would these cars go once they age out? Just looking at a couple of cars (so admittedly this may be a general statement), you can't take an STL car to FP or an STU car to EP without building a completely new motor because STU and STL use all new engine rules that allow greater cam lift and compression than in Prod.
Also, if STU, STL, and STO were created to welcome cars in from the likes of NASA and other competing organizations, we shouldn't go chasing them back a couple of years later.
