I'm 100% serious when I say I am going to try to get into racing in a few years. If I could do F1 I would be in heaven!

im just saying... youd have to like have speed fed into you interveniously to control one of those cars, F1 is not for normal people... i think there is only 1 F1 driver from america or something, but hey, maybe you could be #2! show those brits whats up..

Rep Power: 360 If I could do gymnastics for about 7 or 8 years, and never have 1 major injury, then I am pretty confident I am physically capable of it. I just need the opportunity and a ton of practice. I honestly feel I can do it.
At the same, time I am willing to devote my entire life to it, so if I can get the opportinity, I would do everything in my power to become a good F1 driver.
As for a speed IV: That wouldn't be enough.

I'll flip out and kill people.

Rep Power: 365 f1 is much faster than bike racing.... f1 = lots of hand eye coordination practice, and a lot of reaction time practice.

here's a good link to see the bike vs f1 car. also, an f1 car has A LOT MORE downforce, and and will go through any corner at twice the speed as a bike would...they pull up to 5 G's!!! on cornering/breaking, and up to 2-3 on accelerating...nuff said
without so much downforce, and f1 car can hit 260-270mph...i remember watching somewhere an f-1 car doing a 1/4 mile in 7.8 seconds at 191mph...

Rep Power: 347 I could care less about the top speed of a car. What impresses me more is how fast it can get there, how fast it can slow down, and how fast it can corner. It's easy to make a car go fast in a straight line, it's a whole different ballgame to make it go just as fast and turn on a dime. I remember reading somewhere that, in theory, a F1 car at last year's downforce levels could in theory drive upside down. Now that's a bitchin' car. Let's see a motogp bike do that.
