I can think of some very talented racers that have tried those easy to drive Indy Cars that have multiple endings on a flat bed?
Just saying....RM and all the old timers can argue their case but me, I think these Indy Cars take a great deal of talent and finesse just to make laps, and an enormous amount of talent to run up front! I also think it takes a great deal of talent to get around Eldora in a sprint car or Knoxville in a wing car...Just saying, IMO those Indy Cars running 220 + inches apart might take a little more talent then it takes to sit behind a key board and belittle them!

Tony Stewart.(short tracks)
Robby Gordon.(off road/dessert)
Both did very well at Indy.
