This is nothing new....the people in the front office changed it to Indy Car Series a couple years ago...Bernard is talking about blowing the name IRL name up publicly...Remember CART actually had the rights to Indy Car for a long while?...Tony George was able to get that back..
I read an article on Bernard in NSSN..He actually mentioned a few interesting things about getting grassroots racers involved..mentioned midget drivers...now we will see if an attempt is actually made.
Bernard has to still be surveying the Indy Car landscape...Not many changes yet..too early.

Also, the nascar fans @ work always say you can't have girl without irl. Sort of annoying.

This was kind of an interesting interview on TV 6 in Indy..with Bernard and Robin Miller...that's good he has heard from Miller....obviously Robin has the passion and knowledge about the sport, and knows where the problems are..he also knows the players.
Not much specific here....but good change takes time.
