Probably because most of them should have had drivers competing as Stock car drivers, and they have been bent. Even some of the guys running in the historics seem to think that knocking each others' corners off is the name of the game. I was standing beside Dave Oxton at the McLaren meeting and his comment was that if guys had driven like that in his day, most of them would have been dead.
