Another hurdle has been placed in the way of Das FanHaus finally getting those rocket cars we always wanted. FIA's World Motor Sport Council passed a freeze on all engine development by March 31st, 2008. The authority ruled that the current engines, already partially frozen, were very close competitively, and that a full freeze would be beneficial to the sport. Parity and relative lack of further improvement were cited as the main reasons for the rule change. Das FanHaus remains steadfast in its resolve to deliver rocket propelled open-wheel racing by 2017, and we warn our neighbors to be mindful of the alley between 1 and 3 am on weekdays.
