TG Increases Bid
I am a die hard CART fan. I am passionate about the CART/IRL split. I hate what Tony George has done to open wheel racing in North America. I hate to watch the IRL crap wagons go round in circles. Now it appears he might get his way with"his hand full of nails for CART's coffin" He has bid to buy CART's assests but only the FORD engines, (so that the rest of the league will have nothing to put in there race cars if they started a new series) all the emergency equipment including the mobile hospital, (a new series would need all this to start up) and only one race, (the Long Beach Grand Prix) so that Toyota could attend their marquis race. He claims he cares about open wheel racing in N/A but really only wants to kill CART. 10 years after he split from CART it appears his deep pockets might win. As far as I'm concerned Tony can suck dead air from my liley white butt! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) |

I feel this is also a better decision for the Atlantic cars.
Following CART around may give them more possible dates to be a support race. I know they run an oval here and there but it is a mojority road race series. On a side note I can tell you that none of the top Atlantic drivers want to end up in an IRL. Very good chance to be a quick dead end to your career and the drivers most unfavorably call it the Injury Racing League. The 2003 champion was a local team run out of Loveland, CO(RuSport). Carl Russo the owner was moving up to IRL or CART this year and AJ Allmendinger the 2003 champ was very hopeful for the move to CART. The CART team will also be based out of Loveland at least for a while(a move to Denver is probable). So Colorado fans look for AJ this year and go to the Denver race! |
