I know the modern F1 engines are amazing bits of kit, but listening to the LMP1/2 cars snarling and crackling on the over-run and then wailing their way down the straights in the Spa 6 Hours quali session does make me feel rather nostalgic for the older, simpler and noisier days.

Personally I've always thought it'd be great to have a parallel set of races in much more simple cars (Formula Ford, karts, cigar tube-style F1 cars) as the racing is dull as hell for the most part due to the desire to be peak motorsport tech.

I don't think it's the tech. I love the tech. It's the fact that aerodynamics and downforce matters more than anything else. Fixed capacity bucket of fuel, no electric drive, no wings, flat floor, go. That would be some good racing. Provided the bucket was big enough.
