Somebody school me on formula 1 tires... why the tall sidewalls? In street tires, the more extreme, the lower the profile. Shorter sidewalls, less flex, more cornering traction... Seems like in anything except F1, the tires are very low profile.

Drivers are a dime a dozen. A say atleast let them go to Ti rollcages and framework. And otherwise. I like those proposed rules. Thats a very good plan. With the two pit workers and all. And the 100% fuel capacity. But remember- you could always limit the refill speed. Used to be the fastest that GRAVITY would fill. So no pressurized pumps. |
