the snake has had its day, shepherd is the future
This is true, every car has some issues at some point. Remember 733 fuel tank and one way bearing! And the affair with rusty parts at Xray's NT-1 WC edition (read Xray forum) that was funny stuff to read

I think all the cars are grate and all have a issue or two but that's how it is with racing cars that are pushed to the limit.

And in my opinion the worse thing that a racing driver can do is to switch brands too often (every year). You lose all the set-up data plus new feeling for the car and new composition of elements (longer maintenance times)...

As I read this forums I see that the majority of posts are of a subjective nature and here and there you get a real objective statement served with real background! But anyway I like to reed all the stuff just to see how people over the world react.
