Gary, I'm sorry to hear this but I can understand. My enthusiasm for this series is pretty much gone now. I used to at least check the net to see who won this or that race, even when I stopped watching. But now, I just don't care. I don't even look at the Nielsen ratings anymore. I was in L.A. and could have gone to Long Beach this year. Didn't stay over to go... just didn't care. But you guys are people who occupy a happy place in my mind. So it would be a thrill for me if several of us could ever meet up at the track one of these days.

Gary, Thanks for all your efforts. I have more or less given up on the forum as well - there is just no traffic here…. Best wishes!!

Seems like the same pretty much all over. This is the only one I look in on these days. I stopped going to TF some long time back because of all the hissy fits there from the same cast of characters. Tried OWR for a bit and that was ridiculous - nearly as bad as the fanatics place used to be. No formal count downs, but just as unwelcoming.

You may enjoy the IndyCar section at the Ten Tenths forum, or TrackForum of course.

If you can look past the BS = TrackForum has not been bad.
But you are right, there are a few people that just never change their tune and are pretty "in your face" about it….
However, at least there is consistent posting and quite a number of "high quality" posters with interesting information and points of view…..Last edited by Chris R; 4th August 2014 at 13:24.

Track Forum used to be great, but it has become such a black pit of gleeful negativity that I don't waste my time there any more.
Since I stopped going to Indycar forums, I have enjoyed the races a lot more.

This place is a ghost town. I used to check every day, but now may go weeks. TF is still somewhat active, but has gotten so negative that any sane discourse isn't possible. I guess the crap__ies had to go somewhere and some of the newbees are completely clueless. I still check it, but often don't get past the thread title as it is often "more of the same", complaining about the same topics over and over again by the same handful of hateful people.
But with Twitter becoming "the" place to be, many traditional forums are dying. I follow a number of special interest forums, and all of them are slowly going the same direction.I read it on the internet, so it must be true
