Not until NOW. That is why NASCAR is in talks to absorb the decaying rectangle that a million gallons of Sherwin-Williams paint can't cover and your IRL will look like a night race at the county fair. How will you like Thursday night racing before the Friday night truck series, the Saturday Xfinity series, and the Sunday big race. That's what the IRL did for you.

I blame Facebook. Seriously. All of the forums here and at other sites seem to be WAY down on activity. People still talk about racing and what not, but they seem to be doing it from that annoying, intrusive, piece of spyware, called Facebook. On an F1 forum (not this one) that I lurk, I've noticed that the great majority of the posts are (somehow) coming in via Facebook. Maybe Mark could look into that. But none of the forums here have anything even close to the activity that they did when I first came here... 15+ years ago. Wow, time be a flyin'.
As for why I don't post on the Indy car forum any longer, it's because I have little to no interest in the series. I try to keep up with how my old favorite driver, Juan Montoya, is doing in the championship. But I just look up the results on Bing News. And once I get the results, I go on about my business. I generally just have nothing to say about the series because I'm just not engaged any longer. I'm only here today because of the terrible tragedy involving Justin Wilson."Every generation's memory is exactly as long as its own experience." --John Kenneth Galbraith

The death of open wheel racing was predictable from the beginning of Tony George's take over. There is only one place for the blame.

All the gomers in Moron County Indianner were giddy with the prospect of being the opened wheeled version of NASCAR cause that's all open wheel racing was ever meant to be.
The CART owners did the responsible thing for their business, they just didn't count on the drunk mother to continue signing all the checks for drug addled son

In general all the comments have some element of truth. But it all started when Anton split the sport. Make no mistake about it - the IndyCar fan base has been decimated.
