I'd have to say the setup guy is just as important as the driver in todays winged racing.
If you really want to find the best driver, not the one that stands on it the hardest well that has to be done without wings anyhow.
Not to take anything away from the Rahmers, seen the old man drive many times. He's great.
That first sentence is ridiculous.
As far as finding the best drivers, don't look to see if the car has a wing or not... look to see who races the most. In that sense racing is no different than anything else, the more you do it, the better you are.
