On the contrary. If Elite decided it was done with NHRA I believe PS would get even bigger. It would then give the other engine builders their time to shine and allow more competition.

Last year at Indy I was waiting at the credential trailer and up walks EE. I point blank asked her if the Elite engines were really $175k. She said they have about $140k in parts & labor alone in each engine. Then add the transmission and the chassis plus the $15k suspension and you just have to stop counting at some point.
