Profligate nonsense man!
You try driving one of those things. Bet you don't make it one lap of Albert Park. The steering is like a Mack truck without the power assist!
Just the acceleration is enough to finish most people.
Now do that for approximately 10 hrs over 2 days at ridiculous speeds where mental acuity is just as important as physical strength.
I've only raced Formula Ford and Minis. I used to lose 1/2 stone over a weekend.
Mind you, I just used to lose as well!
