If you want to see the series choke to death, leave it alone. It will go the way of CamAm.

There is no reason to use slicks. Grooved tires limit traction while allowing a large enough tire to be the suspension (there are no springs or t-bars in a current F1).

I used to be against V8's, but there's no reason for that either.

Manual shifting would solve a lot of problems. And traction control doesn't work with the clutch in. If they are going to shift without the clutch, they will lift at each shift or the tranny won't make a race. Better yet, make the trannys last 2 race weekends like the motors.

I have gone on record before about the aerodynamics. Cut them down to the knees! Now, you've got a race car.
