In Response To: OT - Tennis - Why Federer is the best (long) (Henrik Bukkjaer)

This might be true for US (low-tech) racing series...

This is kind of humorous (not in a derisive way) because of the relativeness of the statement. Compared to Formula I, I suspect any form of racing might be considered "low tech", at least if "tech" is proportional to cost. Except for amateur racing and the very lowest US series, the equipment used is considerably better (i.e. higher performance/tech) than stock.

I believe Stick generalized rather than specifically speaking of F1. I don't know F1 as well as I know some US specific series. (As to how well I know those, maybe Joe is going to test me -- see that subthread.)
