I laugh at these guys that say MORE ovals is an answer... LOLOL.. the last thing ICS needs is more ovals, don't you remember, breaking off of CART to an ALL oval series is what started the decline. Americans think ovals = nascar. More Phoenix's at TV rating 0.1 and 10,000 spectators- yeah that's a fix.

Sadly, the list is long idk where to begin. I wrote on the tv deal now on the AR1 home page. When I began researching I knew it was bad, but it turned out to be so much worse than I thought.

Saving the series is futile. Every ounce of energy should be focused on saving the Indy 500. If the Indy 500 dies, then they might as well sell the track to ISC and call it a day. It's sad that the Brickyard 400 will be the megalomaniacs only lasting accomplishment.

I don't understand why those who want to go back to before CART came into existence aren't happy. Before CART, you had a series that was completely centered around one race, along with some other races that no one paid any attention to. That is what you have now. Welcome to the 1970's.
