Richard, if I may pick you up on one point. Try and look up some of the Youtubes of historic racing in the UK and in other places. Some of the dicing in, for example, Goodwood, Silverstone or Monaco is the historics, whether they be F1 cars, sports or tourers, is as close and as spectacular (if not even more so) as it was years ago. Yes, there are the gentleman/women drivers out there, but at the pointy end they don't hold back.
And with the cars having been restored and prepared with, let's just leave it at, precision (so as not to start WWW III), the cars being driven at their limits can leave you almost speechless.
