IRL Press Release.

Pretty much nailed that one. I knew the league was close to doing something. Like I said, they really want to get through the year, but it may not be possible.

Seems like an easy fix to me, put in the 107 percent rule from F1. They are going back to it next year so why not the IRL.

The one actually backed by Chavez is Viso. His sponsor is PDVSA, which is the Venezuelan state oil company. Duno's sponsored by Citgo, American arm, because she or her husband is high up in the executive structure.

This race, Mid-Ohio, and Sears Point are the only remaining road courses. After that it's ovals all the way. And while she's not quick on ovals, she's not slower than any of the rest of the backmarkers on them either.

I can't see them pulling her off before the end of the season because what would that mean for Dale Coyne's operation? Post-season they can nudge her out like they did Marty Roth and she can then go race sportscars.

That's their standard for black flagging someone they said in the Edmonton pre-race is 107%.

More material today....she couldn't even make it through the first corner...it looks like tv has decided to not even show her, my guess is to not give her ANY air time...

Rob I was talking about USAC Fan..not you. Mind telling me what I did to ruffle your feathers? I probably should have quoted another one of USAC Fans posts, I can see where you could have misunderstood what I was meaning.

I contribute a lot by actively leading the charge to get more Sprint Car races to Brownstown and help out as much as I can to accomodate people when they come to my track or anywhere else for that matter. USAC Fan just gets to a lot of people on here.
