They aren't being put at a disadvantage, they are having an advantage removed, as was always going to be the case. It has been stated by TOCA from day one that for 2011 and 2012 the turbo and S2000 cars would be equalised, with NGTC getting increased power from 2013 onwards.

The teams running S2000 NA machinery entered on the basis that they would be running on an equal footing this year, having been promised this by the organiser. The turbo cars are being pegged back in an attempt to restore equality. I don't see what the problem is...
