    He just got promoted over there and he and Johnson have reportedly been in bed with KK and Forsythe, respectively. Forsythe reportedly wanted Cotman fired a year or so ago. No, I have no link -- it's strictly talk here and there around various actions that seems to make sense about those statements, so take 'em for what they're worth. But it appears, IMO, that Forsythe is stating to take the ball from KK on this deal. KK hasn't said a word since before his JDSU trial.

    But Cotman had a lot of respect in the paddock and a great deal of that was his experience and knowledge in the open-wheel community vs. the ex-SCCA guys in the office.

    Careful, js. At this point, with all the phone calls, I would dare say you may be running a real risk of being offered a job over there.....

    Matos passes up $2 mil and Cotman resigns in the same day...

    Can anyone honestly answer why CC is still around?

    Maybe it had something to do with Cotman campaigning vigorously to keep May open so ChampCar teams could run Indy to get sponsors and not having his way. CCWS ended up scheduling Laguna Seca right in the middle of May. I think the key to more sponsorship for some of the CCWS teams is to run Indy and Cotman believed this too.

    Looks more and more like F1 and ALMS are going to be my only race viewing outlets in the near future.

    Come on guys ... help me move these deck chairs to the other side of the ship.

    It's really sad how things look at the moment.
