Yep. I'm trying really hard to be a fan of all the new tech, but I'm afraid my interest wanes as the old formula is lost. I have a theory that part of the reason events like Goodwood are exploding in popularity is because the old formula was just better. It may not have been as performant, but loud race cars that make terrifying sounds as they lap the circuit are a big part of what draws people to automotive racing.

I know I probably sound like some nostalgic old timer, and I really, really am trying to stay vested in the new tech, but it's hard.
