and having no power cap means that engineers WILL spend long hours drinking coffee trying to figure out how to get another 10 horsepower over there competititors.
that's racing and if we negate a cap on something like power... it'll rule out a huge part of the sport.
what they are doing now is the best. give the enigeers a set of base rules (weight, size and piston count) it makes them focus on other allternatives.
so in the end... say another 10 years from now. there wont be a part of the engine that hasn't been refined to such a degree that your civic will be able to have 300 horspower on 2 liters and run for 300 000 kilometers.
