To much Power just leads to an uncontrollable crash at the end of the straight or in our world at the bottom of an over enlarged set of jumps.
We first need to be able to control our cars before we press the nitrous bottle switch !

then educate your drivers, don't impose limits on those who know what their capabilities are and choose a motor to suit.
a spec class only means driver push their equipment to the limit, and when a new speedo/motor is released everyone buys it to see if its quicker. my motor in my buggy is over 3 years old and still fast enough for me.
too much power does not lead to a crash, the driver going too fast leads to the crash
