Robin Miller slams CCWS AGAIN.....

Can't we all just race along...?

Jacques, et al...
You are wrong about our Friend TG, "BY THE RESULTS" - if he was so incompetent as you suggest, surely slick big time business men like KK and GF would have crushed him by now. Between the old CART series and the new CCWS they have had 13 years to put out a better promotion for a better racing product and have consitently failed. Possibly, consider TG is not as stupid as you think.

He has the 8,000-lbs. gorilla, the "Indy 500" and anyone who had that asset would have enventually beat back all challengers.

Not to defend what TG did in 1995, but the big dog, i.e. I-500 makes the rules in nature and it is time to get past it, get all of OW racing under one tent, move on and "let's ALL go racing together" !!!

It is because of that gorilla that he has managed to stay afloat. That does NOT mean that he has succeeded.

For 12 years, the IRL ratings have gone down.
For 12 years, the IRL track attendance has gone down.
Now, the IRL is even finding difficult to have 18 cars on its grid.

How can you call that success ? The average CC tv rating is of 0.6, while the IRL gets a 1.1 rating. Both keep going down every year. In 2008, the average IRL race will most likely go into the 0.9 range. Just b/c he is higher than CC, it does not mean that he has succeeded. It is Indy that delays the same fate for the IRL; but it only delays it, it does not prevent it.

I have never been against racing under one tent; I just don't believe that is the solution to today's issues.

I never used the word "success" and it's still better than the amigos have done w/ CCWS

I got chinese food tonight and I swear to God my fortune cookie said:

"Friends long absent are coming back to you."

Now if that is not a sign, I don't know what is...


It also says my lucky numbers are 16, 18, 28, 30, 36, 37 and that "Wo-Shou" means "Shake Hand"...

Quick, find out what drivers carry those numbers!!

Um...actually looking around the only one of those numbers in use is the 28 by Pacific Coast Motorsports 2nd car...

OK. Is that all ? Read your favorite writer, then. Even RM writes that TG looks good, but only when compared to CC.
Once again, you are jumping off the Titanic to go on board the Lusitania. You are just delaying the inevitable.
But, go ahead. It is your decision to make.
