have to agree with 999 also. winning a race is a combination of both car and driver. no matter how good you drive, if the car isnt up to par with those you are competing with then you wont win. it also goes the other way, if you have a great car but the driver sucks, then the end result is the same - no races won!

i get your point about david jun that if they go over to hk he'd win even if using a tao4 - but thats becuse he isnt racing against the likes of masami or pavidis or hara in that scenario. do you think he stands a chance agiainst them if he used an 04 instead of his 414? i dont think so.

and very good point regarding schumi in f1. there was no doubt he was a great driver when he moved to ferrari. but when he first joined them, the car sucked. it took him and the ferrari team a few years to develop the car to what is today to make more competitive and bring him and the ferrari team to a championship. thats why they have championships for both car and driver!

just my thoughts on the matter. sorry that was long
