Why would ISC promote an event at an SMI track?

This is an occasion where the teams need to put their foot down.
F1 returned to Imola, but in that case it was only after big changes to the track, which isn't going to be possible at Las Vegas.Please 'like' our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/motorsportforums

If we should quit on every track where someone lost his life, then we don't have much left.
But this track is NOT suitable for IndyCar... At least, not with 34 cars. But I'm sure it's gonna work out the same way with 28 cars. If IndyCar wanted a race on the new Vegas oval, they had to do that in 2006 or 2007, when there weren't more then 18 or 19 cars running in an IndyCar race.
I would like it if they returned to Homestead by the way.October 16th, 2011 - One of the blackest days in the history of motorsports.

The new car won't be slower, and it doesn't has to be. There just has to be less pack racing on the track. I won't take the risk in losing someone again. Why not make a return to Rockingham or Lausitz? Those tracks would be safer, at least there's more space on those tracks and the drivers will have to lift in the turns.

I have my doubts that the MP 4/23 of 2008, designed by Tim Goss and Simon Lacey, was really based on a design Newey had made ten years earlier for the MP 4/13, especially considering there had been...
