Just got back from a walk and turned on tv, on CBS, they are showing FIA Formula E racing. I could get used to the body styling, as this has always changed over time. Having trouble with listening to the whining of the powerplant though...

I have watched it a few times in the past. Kind of fun actually. Because the cars are all basically identical, it really comes down to driver skill and battery usage strategy. I do agree, the sound does take some getting use to. Like really big RC cars.

I was thinking along the lines if old school HO track cars. I think identical cars is fair, an important part missing for ne is the shifting. But you're right, it does highlight skill level. That's why I love the road courses better than oval track, regardless of car type.
