It's not always a good idea to copy the set-up from the very best drivers... unless you have out of this world hand-eye coordination, an easy to drive car is always faster on average!

I was talking to someone this week about oneways - and they made a point I'd not considered and that's just the sheer power and speed of the cars might be too much for a one way now. A lot of drivers I knew running one-ways in years gone by have stopped running them.
