It will be six more weeks of winter in hell.

To be fair, that’s ~$200k to maintain housing both in the city and back home in their district.

I think you nailed it with cost and durability concerns, maybe with a sprinkling of packaging limitations. The race intake isn’t constrained by any of those limits, only rule requirements. Those A/B manifolds (with butterflies) are about as good as they have been able to offer while keeping costs down, and fitting the…
