All do to warranty concerns, reliability issues and the insurance industry. Not to mention the never ending race for better gas mileage and green cars.

The gentlemen's agreement WAS in the automotive industry. . . You'll see zoltek and other major CF manufacturers making deals with the big 3. You'll see power coming down or at least peaking near where it is and weight dropping for increased performance. You can face-palm all you want, but that's what is going to happen whether you like it or not. CAFE standards and demand for higher efficiency will lead that way.
