I don't know about completely lost, but you have a good point. These things are the most highly developed example of mid 1960s racing technology you will find anywhere. Most F1 engineers have never worked with anything that archaic in their lives. That being said, I have said for years that the only people in NASCAR that impress me are the crew chiefs. These are the guys who win those races. Thats why I find it ironic that NASCARs real stock in trade is driver worship. A good driver can make up a bit for an ill-handling road race car, but if a circle track car isn't set up correctly he's dust. One of the best tips I ever got was to read Circle Track magazine and learn what those guys know about set up. I personally think NASCAR races are dull and don't watch at all, but I have nothing against it except for the excessive TV coverage. I resent that we can't get a road race broadcast more than once when the NASCAR "race" is shown over and over along with endless repeats of every innane reveiw and chat show, discussing things like what "number 29's" lead semi truck driver prefers in footware... Bah.... Oh, and lets not talk about the number passes in F1 versus NASCAR, lets talk about the number of passes that MATTER... |
