Rallye: First guy out is the series leader. This is a disadvantage because he must clean the track, giving those who come after an big bonus. Why not invert the first 10 drivers? Sportscar: Is the knife-edged nose on the Lola 2b2k10 not the UGLIEST racer around these days? The front wheels fairings are similar to the Audi R8's and Chrysler Dallara in that they pinch off the bodywork behind the tire. But that pointy nose...blech! CART: Needs a modern sim, needs to go back to early 90's aero rules to improve short oval racing. F1:Needs to curb Schumi's starting tactics Nascar:Toyota is comming... Motorcycles: Take away the advantage twin Ducati's and Honda's have Motocross: History shows ONE rider to reign supreme for several years...Why can't they find more than ONE rider who dominates? Bicycling:Would Micheal Schumacher coast around in the pack for most of the event? How can THAT many riders be soooo equal? TV Coverage: If Speedvision can show 25hours of Le Mans, why can't the CART races stay on the air long enough to allow a victor's interview? just my 9 cents worth. dave henrie

How can THAT many riders be soooo equal? It takes 30% more effort to drive solo than it does to draft behind another cyclist. You don't have a chance if you just take off early on your own. Some are sprinters, some are climbers, and some are a combination. There's a ton of racing tactics going on within the pack. > TV Coverage: If Speedvision can show 25hours of Le Mans, why can't theCART > races stay on the air long enough to allow a victor's interview? CART isn't very popular. David G Fisher

I partially agree. McGrath owned Supercross for like 7 years, but only dominated in the Nationals for a couple of years. During McGraths SX reign, Doug Henry, Jeff Emig and Greg Albertyn won National championships. Heck, McGrath even stopped riding the Nats. I consider the Nats "true" motocross, so while I respect his record, I don't consider him dominant. In fact, when I read he had a SX only contract, I actually thought it was kind of lame. Tim
