There used to be an auto racing series called the International Race Of Champions (IROC) in which drivers were selected from various racing leagues to compete against each other. Over the years the drivers raced Camaros, Firebird, Dodge Daytonas, etc. Each car was set up the exact same making each car equal. The drivers showed up and raced at various tracks. Usually these races were very good and some drivers really stood out some didn't. No pit stops just good plain racing.
Fast forward to today and NASCAR is basically becoming the same thing. They want everyone equal, example; they make Toyota run a different restrictor plate because they are too fast. No longer is it up to the manufacturer to out work the other just run to NASCAR and ask for a 'bailout'. My attitude is just let the teams show up at the track have them draw numbers for an already prepared car, put their decals on it, and go race.
