Is the open wheel world better off than it was a year ago? Your post was pre-season. Some of us waited until after the last race to revisit the topic you initiated.Quote:

Let's see. I believe having all united under one banner is good. Having all the dollars available today being spent in one effort is good.
Is the racing better, not yet but can be. Were people hurt, you bet, many veteran racing people like Billy Kamphausen still are unemployed and have been ignored by the ICS.
So to answer the question I would have to say: Maybe, I will judge again after I hear about Surfer's being dropped or added to the schedule and the fallout or gain of that decision.
No
Yes. Now you can at least hope that some day, ordinary American people will actually care for the racing you love - like they did before... I mean, before 1996. With Champ Car, you had to accept it was going to remain a niche.

In all honesty, I can't see how it could be any more worse off than it was last year. Or where it looked like it would be the first week of Feb this year. And I make that same observation about BOTH series. They were both headed for the dumper.
