Ah but give them a damp track to play with....... [Thinks back to a wet
practice session at Silverstone a few years back and seeing Alesi blowing
away the concept of slowing down in wet conditions....sigh] You're right to
a point though, it's the improved aerodynamics these days and those rear
wings and their dirty air effect... Technology can have an awful lot to
answer for !

Not funny when you can remember the days not that long ago when such things

If you want to see some real racing, than get to watch a 250ICE kart race if
you can. 130mph, awesome acceleration coz of the power to weight thing and
wheel to wheel stuff. Saw a couple of races at Cadwell a few weeks back and
to see them attacking The Mountain was mind blowing. The winner of the first
race started at the back, and the second from grid 18 I think.
