In reply to the Ops intended thread
the fastest cars tend to be driven by the best drivers the most popular chassis tend to be the one that the best drivers use
In the RC world we are all looking for the next greatest chassis or option that will take us closer to the Lee Martins or Neil Craggs of this world we do suffer the sheep syndrome to a greater or lesser extent
there are lots of variables (far too many to be of accurate use as data) in my very humble opinion
the biggest variable is the driver ability in real life F1 the ability range is narrow from top to bottom all are very competent drivers
in RC its massive from F1 grade Pro level to newbie first timers this is the biggest difference
i have no wish to take sides or enter into a war of words
its just my opinion
