What horsepower?

The reason the FI classes were merged back in is because the HP rating disparity had been reduced to a survivable level. Sure, they wanted to reduce the number of classes, but it had become reasonable to do so as well.

They did work. The fact that the FI cars eventually fell in line close to the rest is a testament to that.

I've been a fan of and an advocate for reducing the number of classes, at least in Stock, but the new cars have shown that there is a need for classes for "factory specials" or whatever you want to call the bogus combinations with absurd factors.
