I think this is where HQ is trying to balance safety and affordability. Neck restraints and fire suppression are expensive. I won't get into a car without my DefNder, but I can see where buying a couple of them could start to stretch the budget for other teams.
Linking the fuel pump power to oil pressure is an awesome idea. I think i'll have to rework my car to implement that.
yeah, I'm not that hot on requiring $1000+ of extra gear when racing twice yearly is a bit of a stretch. I'm already less risk-averse than some, commuting by motorcycle will do that. I guess I'm just not that paranoid about fire when our car has 100% stock fuel and electricals; Benz are pretty good at not bursting into flames during autobahn 4-offs at far higher speeds than we achieve on track... Now, if I were driving something like the Chotus, I'd probably think differently...
