I agree with what you said, and believe that most of the racers at the top levels have a gift of making just about anything go fast around a race track. Witness Rossi going from the Honda to the Yamaha and still dominating.
However, while we've seen top riders do well as race car drivers, I've never heard of the other scenario, have you? Has a fast car driver ever made the switch to bikes and done well?
