that was amazing.

 

That was pretty wild. Really gives you some perspective as to how hard those f1 cars actually run.

 

wow thats fast.

quite a difference. I believe the laguna seca lap record was just broken by an f1 car...about a half a second faster than the champ car that had it.

 

It was even apparent how the F1 car could handle the corners MUCH better than the Champ car. Seemed like the Champ car plowed the corners a bit. It would be better to get the same driver in each car. Different drivers=Different talents. My opinion.

 

remember that the F1 vid is from 2005, when F1 cars had about 150HP more than they do today. F1 cars are still faster, but i think the difference has shrunk some.

Yeah, but remember even with the V8's the F1 cars at certain tracks are still running on or just barely behind last years times. They're not really running the much slower.

Best comparison would be to get the fastest Lap time of this years Montreal races from each racing series.

 

Cool video.
