    So how many deaths does it take before action needs to be taken? How many close calls (Brack, Briscoe, etc.) do we need to have become fatalities before action needs to be taken? The bottom line is...

    Dan Wheldon Memorial Service on Versus

    It's a lot different now

    Regarding 1964, the race was not broadcast live on national TV AND the closed circuit broadcast (remember those?) almost immediately went off the air around the country. Not due to technical...

    Keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better. No one thought a car could fly into the stands in Le Mans until 1955 either. I was at Indy when Mario was higher than the fence during his...

    I'm done with IndyCar Ovals

    For better or worse NASCAR owns the ovals. I don't really enjoy watching IndyCars running wheel to wheel because the stakes are too high. If a car ever got airborne and cleared the fence and then...

    Any chance of another USGP?

    If the teams do break away and form their own series is there much of a chance that the new series would come to the US since most of the breakaway teams are in some way backed by one of the major...
