Apparently not enough. Did you manage to catch any of that F1 Bridgestone test session at Indy this year?
This is where you become clueless. What is it you want to "stop f***ing up"? Restrictor plates? Why not dump those idiotic antiquated *carburetors* altogether? Stick on a decent MFI system and, hell, let's let 'em run nitrous, too! Then it would become one big 2-1-2-mile, 3- or 4-cornered *drifting event*! The crashes would be *tremendous*! And almost invariably bane ...
Yeah, it does. Ask yourself how many commercials they can work into a half-hour program. More seriously, though, you ignore that major NASCAR races always *were* endurance events, from the very beginning. Dump that, and the restrictive speed rules, and you might as well watch drag racing, or set up a multi-lane version of Bonneville.
As they always have, at least since 1965 (Oops! They banned superchargers and fuel injection in 1958!), and they always will.
MP Hybrid .. US ArmyI'm new to this group, so I don't know if this has been discussed before or not. I'm trying to learn as much as I can about hybrid cars before I buy one...
They aren't outraged because it's the way it's been for a long time and it's what they've come to expect. That, and they're largely a bunch of stupid drunken rednecks, many of whom would probably perfectly happy not having to buy race tickets if their wives would just let them go off in a big damn field somewhere, sit around all weekend on top of motorhomes, and get drunk with their pals. -- C.R.
