I know much of this has been already said Whilst I would generally tend to look to simplify regulations, the current rather complicated engine regulation has produced competitive times for different engines, albeit with some engines suited more to either sprints or hillclimbs. As said, having a 'bhp' limit only for a class, regardless of engine type/induction/ECU specification, would require some form of screening to ensure compliance. The first rule of screening is the requirement of a test with low false positive and false negative rates. The wide variability of bhp testing would cause us serious grief and argument. Also, for fairness, all cars would need to be tested. Year on year. This would entail significant cost to all. I would conclude, much as I would love to fit my Jenvys and Emerald and enjoy getting more bhp and torque from my engine, my view is that we should leave the regulations, in this respect, as they are.
