First it's pretty tires. Next it's pretty guns. Then the next thing you know, you're shaving your beard and wearing capri pants.
That's some pretty heady stuff considering the (lack of) tyre and chassis technology of the day. Just a handfull of horsepower.

That is some amazing driving skill. Think about it - those guys have gone 1/2 mile in the time it takes us to move from the accelerator to the brake (well, maybe a little less but not much). Driving at those speeds and so close - it looked at one point they were side-by-side separated by less than an arm's length - and entirely trusting the car and tires to just be there. Their cars are an extension of their being. Trust the Force
