[QUOTE="taylorkh, post: 674807, member: 44240"] Thank you all for the great information! This is starting to make sense. As to Jake's comment about Formula 1... F1 is something which does NOT make sense. Given a clean sheet of paper and the rules that the car must have 4 wheels and a driver... any competent F1 designer could easily produce a car which a human being could not drive on the track. Too fast for human reflexes and generating so much G force in braking and cornering that the driver would loose consciousness. To alleviate this the sport has incredibly complex rules which result in very overpriced cars which the lower tier constructors cannot afford and which cannot get close enough to the car they are chasing for any real racing. The results are by and large boring! So, even though active aerodynamics are banned, DRS was added back. Ground effect skirts are banned so we have wings which are so complex (and ugly) they only work in clean air. The "steering wheel" is a computer console and the driver has to worry about conserving tires. Rubbish. Refueling was banned (for politically correct reasons I guess) but it was a great source of entertainment. The last year of refueling (2010 I thnk?) Ferrari had a remote control "lollipop" to release the driver from the pits. It was controlled by someone in Marinallo I guess. But the remote person really did not have a good handle on things in pit lane. They would routinely send out the car with the fuel can attached, the fuel man attached, run over another team's fuel man etc. Exciting! Off my soapbox now :) And thanks again for the great information on DSLR ISO. Ken [/QUOTE]
