If you look at a 1970 rulebook, you won't find sections on vacuum pumps, delay boxes, nitrous oxide, digital recorders, tranny brakes and the long throw buttons, blinders. Even radial tires was a huge step forward. Do you think that every single person that came up with these items (and tons and tons more), were "cheating"? IMO they were just using the rules in place to further their advantage. Eventually, new rules were written to regulate most of them. But they didn't let it go YEARS before implementing new rules. That's the thing here, there's a lot of money laying on the table. Good Lord, you built one yourself right? There's more of these engines out there than anyone's thinking. From multiple engine builders. I've had phone calls from two racers that are in the same boat as the minions camp.
