The take I've heard on this on the SM list (from a few, not all) is that
it's so hard to set up these highly prepared cars that it's unreasonable
to expect them to remain as fast as, say, their SP equivalents for several
years.
I think that reasoning is total crap and that they are PAXing the drivers,
not the cars. It certainly can be argued that is what happens in other
classes as well, but I still don't think it's a good thing, and SM is a
particularly egregious example of it.
