Reading those questions really drives home the fact that good open wheel racing has no chance in the USA.

I don't know but the title made be very optimistic... and hungry

Not a lot to argue with. RM is pretty sober (in his writing).

I'll still try to enjoy my little race in my quiet sort of way and I don't expect anyone at my Memorial Day picnic to bring it up.

They had the front row on Fox and Friends the other day. The shmuck who was interviewing them didn't have a clue who they were or what the 500 was. It was a 2 minute train wreck. Embarrassing actually. I wonder how much Tony paid to get them on NASCAR channel.

A two minute train wreck is much more bearable than one that lasts three hours.

Wow that was wrong on just about every level.

Asking Dixon, Wheldon and Briscoe if they are upset that there are so few Americans in the race:eek:

And Wheldon looks like a freak...

Hot air balloon races to return to the spudway. Since TIG failed at automobile racing, he has decided to return to the spudway's roots: all 'murican circuitous balloons.
