Roller cams will not solve the problem, and will not make it cheaper. It will only make it more expensive, change the failure mode, and cause more problems. It will create another R&D expense. It won't make anyone any faster, except maybe someone who has unlimited funds to invest in camshaft and valvetrain testing.Roller cams will simply cause more problems, and make nothing cheaper.

What will people cry about tearing up next? What rule change will they demand? How much will it cost?
