Where does this confidence come from where you steadfastly envision vehicles will remain unlimited on racetracks?
This whole thread reminds me of the famous poem about the creep of governmental tyranny by Martin Niemöller...

Although this topic is not about governmental action, it is about incremental intrusion on freedom and autonomy. I believe we are already way over-regulated and limited by sources public and private. And I know it usually comes incrementally. For me, it’s a matter of both principle and preference. No, I’m not okay with this for the reasons I previously stated, and I would never buy such a car. What saddens me is that very few others seem to hold these values dear, and it is making us less great as a species.
