I think the idea of a chassis shootout was and is a good idea as presented. Same tires, motors, transmissions, gears and drivers. He!! yes it will prove something. He!! yes it would be a valid comparison. He!! yes it would be a blast to attend and count me in! This is not a 'the worlds best Cobra' nor 'are replicas better than original' event. It is just get the chassis's out there and lets see what they can do on a relatively even playing field.

Price difference, all new or 'donor' type parts who gives a $hit. Ever see a Vette compaired to a 360 (or other similar comparison)? What is normally the outcome? The lower dollar car gets beat by the higher dollar one but it also points out what a terrific value the lower dollar car is.

If you don't think the event has merit, don't attend. But lets cut the crap, get it done and make our own call on the results.
