Question for you John ... When speaking of innovation, what is always the primary purpose of innovation? First and foremost has always been to go quicker and faster, right? There have been safety improvements with some innovations. How much faster do you want to see these cars go? Hell, in only a few years, teams figured out how to go 330 mph on a track 320 feet shorter.
We all know the DSR canopy is completely designed on the principle to improve driver safety, but if a resultant effect is another 5-7 mph top speed and even quicker ET's ... is that really a good thing? Could added speed negate some of the safety features of the canopy in a bad crash?
I guess ultimately the question always will be how fast is too fast, right?
