While I can't say that I disagree with what you have said, I will have to
point out that we already have a bunch of spec open-wheel series. What
makes F1 unique is the (rather) openness of their rules. Closing those
rules down is bound to render the series just another of many spec classes.
If I want to watch a high power V* open wheel class I will watch Indy cars.
But I find that ultimately much more boring than the worst F1 race.

What Kas is talking about is what works for NASCAR when they run on road
courses. Real racing with strong cars that don't depend on computers to
drive
them. I get tired of the oval track NASCAR parades but you'll find me glued
to
the set when they run at Infineon or the Glen. A lot of people seem to value
F1 primarily for its advanced technology. Yet the high tech level is what
has
reduced the competition level. I watched a bunch of F1 races while Jaguar
was
"competing" and most of them were nap time. No wonder his soap box is
splitting - there's two of us standing on it. Mike >
