Liam, I do think that ski racing is similar to car racing. We all drive cars but unless you have actually been on a track in a true race car, the average person has no clue as to the forces and speeds they are dealing with. Ski racing is the same.

Agree 100%.

I think both disciplines involve the art of balance and smoothness. The razor's edge between grip and sliding. I have an unproven belief that skiers are better car drivers because we are used to the G forces and sensation of sliding in a turn.  Does anybody else here autocross/drive on a track in the summer?
