To me, seeing teams overcome these types of variables are what makes racing exciting and fun...

Between this and driverless cars...might as well buy a slot car set....I know I might be in the minority...but I would rather hear the roar of an engine
Lee,

I'd rather hear analog vinyl played on tube equipment too. At the end of the day, its who gets to the finish line first. The downside may be loss of some visceral sensations, but it will be hard to argue w infinitely variable torque application and nearly infinite, instantaneous torque using software. Tire technology will need to keep up. Or may be where we're going, we don't need roads.
