Just want to understand what I'm responding to.

So here is the poll:

With the understanding that no one is totally at fault for the current state of AOW, what do you think is the biggest cause of the current condition?


Car Owners?

The Economy?

Tony George?


If Starter wants to show me how to make the poll official up there, I would appreciate it, but I will let this play out regardless before registaring my thoughts.

What the heck does that have to do with the original question?

Are you somehow implying that the state of the IRL today is the fault of CART/CCWS?
