I don't know whether Indy Racing can be saved or not. The grandson of Anton Hulman, Jr. had his chance and was not in the process of turning it into a more successful organization. In fact, as screwed up as it sounds, the sport maybe wouldn't survive at all, if it lost it's little tempermental, 100 lb meal ticket. Which it is in the process of doing, starting with the ARCA race @ Daytona.
Here you have this guy, Randy Bernard. He took over part of a sport that had been around forever and had never been commercially successful on a large scale and helped turn PBR into a multi hundred-million dollar, international enterprise. When he was 28 years old! I'm not saying this is the guy that'll be the savior of the sport, but considering his track record, I wouldn't bet against him.
