Maybe if F1 had mechanics setting up their cars instead of computer geeks making adjustments they might be able to put on a competitive show (yes they are shows). When you have 100K plus fans in attendance you are putting on a show.
If F1 wants to learn how to run REAL races maybe thay should contract with the France family to run the program. Tony George took a lesson from Bill France and now owns Open wheel racing in this country.
Not dissing F1 drivers or their equipment, they have the best of both, but F1 is clueless (at least in the US) about putting on a good show for the fans.
You guys can laugh all you want to about Nascar but they own the US racing fan.

THEY don't have the issue with G forces on the car that F1 was dealing with as the milk trucks only have to turn left. and are incapable of the speed and stopping abilities in F1
No comparison
but
Well for those who did sit through this debacle thanks for coming out and thanks to the Flying Pig for putting up with such a depressed lot
Also Classic BMW, Boardwalk Ferrari, Ewing Autohaus, and Honda Cars of Mckinney for putting up the door prizes.
