Sorry Darryl, but as you yourself suggest there needs to be some rules even if they are simple because the class needs the stability of equality or people won't support it including manufacturers. The attractive thing about one design is that there is equality but the major problem with one design is there are too many different classes, each with but a few participants. The attractive thing about the formula class is, it has the potential to bring many of the one design classes together in one fleet but it also needs to adopt the attribute of the equality that one design offers and that can only happen if there are some parameters to begin with otherwise;
