All those things you say are absolutely true, but the pilot of a p-41 Mustang might say the same of today's fighter jets, a an archer of guns, and so on.
Being "one with the machine" is a state of mind which can be achieved by increasing the demands when new capabilities eliminate old requirements.
- shooting further and more accurately with a gun
- doing maneuvers with a jet that will rip the wings of a Mustang

So it is with a fast car which does not require the driver to shift allows the driver to perhaps concentrate better and attempt a trickier course with more turns at faster speed?

The mind can only do one thing at any given time, to do more...one has to bundle smaller things into a bigger thing.
