    Now before I bail out completely, need to see what the next steps the board takes.

    Indycar must be the longest trainwreck ever. Every time I think it can't get any worse they sink a little deeper. I must be a little masochistic as I continue to be intrigued by every next step into the abyss.

    So what are they going to do now? Bring back the biggest failure in the history of sports (TG)? I'd love to see the meltdown when that happens.

    There are two ways this could go:

    1. They partner with the Boston consultants, make a great new marketing, media, and financial plan and hire a terrific new CEO.

    2. They sell out to Efffff TG

    #1 - I will stay with em...
    #2 - see ya ....

    #1 takes professional visionary business people, unfortunately the current Board has not show that in past experience.

    #2 is the easy way out, but probably kills the goose along with the Indy eggs.

    Furthermore, when it craters totally under Effffff Teee Geee I am sure Nascar will be there to scoop it up at a bottom feeder price and turn it into a generic spec open wheel series, steel frames, 5.0 stock block engines interchangeable with Sprint/nationwide/ Sports car series, run at Daytona, ISC tracks as warm up events, maybe a few road courses with Nationwide or the GransAmLemans.

    Angry

    The guy comes in and does a good job and they fire him for it? How have the Hulmans stayed in business this long? If TG is back in, I'm gone for good too!!!

    Everybody just keep your heads! Everything is going to be fine. We just need to band together and move these deck chairs around and it'll all be OK. Sit down, have a good bourbon and listen to the band play "Nearer My God to Thee" while we get this sorted out. Everything will be just fine. Trust me.
