The Beer Baron should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

What's in a turbo ?

What's so special about the turbo in generating the power that drives a Champcar ?

While the turbo gives CART the uniquness that avoids direct comparisons with other series, when the guys are battling wheel-to-wheel on road courses and ovals, no one could care less about the technology propelling the car!

If CARt ends up in 2003 with a N/A engine that produces 750 Hp or a Turbo that produces 750 HP , could someone please tell me the difference in whats required to drive the cars?
