Formula 1 ?

no skill in just turning left.

That's flat out ignorant.

Yep....spoken like a true sidewalk commando...Don't remember the name but several years ago one of the fellows that dominated the class he raced in, which were loosely based on the one liter production sport bikes made the comment that if you can successfully race in his class you could successfully race the 500gp bikes. Believe the 500 2 strokers are in the 350 pound range and make around 225hp. This individual climber on to a 500 GP bike and destroyed it....crashed it hard enough that nothing could be salvaged.

Everything is always easy...til you try it. Would could be hard about racing a fuel car? Burn out, pre-stage, stage and launch...how difficult could that be....
