MM,
With your quote below, I wanted to point out that your comments on cost and
engine availability
are not accurate for FF. With new pistons, cranks heads being produced and
used, service life is estimated to be 40-50 hours
with the cost of a rebuild between 2-4000 as a consistent range (between the
four big engine builders).
A lot of effort and thought was put into the engine issue, and the results
are evident in the availability,
longevity, and costs.

Quote " I would guess that this depends more on what happens with FF than
anything
else. FF has engine availability and cost troubles as it is. If F600
comes
into being as a replacement for FF, it is not beyond comprehension that
the
three (FF, F500, F600) could be lumped into a single class. The lap times
are
pretty close between FF and F500 already. If this happened, I have a
feeling
that an F500 under today's rules would look like a pretty good option for
someone who can set it up and drive it....;-) End Quote"
