Winning: Then vs. Now  

Agree that everything is "too closely matched". Back in the mid 60's to mid 70's, you built our own car. Got some chalk, laid it out on the garage floor, put welder to tubing and bar stock, and you had a race car. Various idea's created various cars and some were much faster than others. Today, you pick up the phone and in a short while, a complete roller shows up at your doorstep. Racing today is almost like the old IROC series.
