Now your probably thinking, well racing gave us windshields and seat-belts. But those days of innovation are long gone, we have computers to do stuff like that. How big of a carbon footprint does the 24hr of LeMans leave? Just consider the noise pollution alone... The "fact" we have Climate Change proves we need to put an end to this not-so-silent killer.
Not to mention it does nothing to lower the deficit.
