I always get a laugh when I see this argument. It always makes me think of what has taken place in the past. Remember Super Mod and the Econo classes? They were going to be a cheap and simple way for guys to have fun without spending a fortune. And now, they're ridiculously expensive and there's nobody in them. Super Stock? I remember when a decently competitive SS car involved a $30,000 total investment. Nowadays, that won't buy you an engine. I think the real problem is that many racers see three options, when there are only two. Option 1 is quit: Option 2 is spend enough to keep up with the guys who don't CARE how much it costs, and Option 3 is to keep bitching, but refuse to spend with the big dogs.
