Why is this forum dead?

So basically, there are two types of people who no longer watch IndyCar but continue to disparage it right and left:

1. The old farts who have moved on and will not watch IndyCar racing under any circumstances. That's fine. But they continue coming to forums and blogs and posting excuses such as "cars are ugly" (as if ugly cars don't race in other series).

2. People who still follow motorsports but who have an utterly irrational hatred for IndyCar. Normally, they try to use the same old "ugly car" argument as the justification for their irrational hatred, but this does get old.

Just look at NASCAR. Don't tell me that people watch NASCAR because the SPEC plastic soap bars on wheels with painted headlights and no doors known as stock cars are actually beauty queens.

Interesting conclusion. Especially since the only one to mention ugly cars was me back in post #7. That's 1 in fourteen or 7.14% of the posts. Do you perhaps have a day job interpreting polls for politicians?

Although it may look this way, your posts did not inspire my half-drunken post. It's everywhere! That particular day, and previously, I was reading a post of Jalopnik.com, and I was irritated. That's why I came up with that hypothesis.

I can relate to half-drunken posts. I was just pulling your leg a bit.

Actually, IndyCar just doesn't seem to have the aura it once did. The competition is fairly good, but I just can't maintain interest in the series. I watch a few of the races if I happen to be home. I just don't go out of my way to watch, like set the recorder if I'm not home. Didn't used to be that way.

It could be because certain members of the IRL contingent spent an inordinate amount of time and IMS resources trashing CART AND CCWS so that they left no room for fans of those two entities to become fans of what followed. P!$$ on IMS.

And none of that traveled the other way, right?
