I hope my previous post didn't come off as sounding like I was p!$$!ng on Bryan's parade. I know American circle trackers have no choice but to aspire to NASCAR. NASCAR has very smartly put a development program in place for young homegrown talent while Indy Car/CCWS actively pursues young foreigners with money. I felt the same way about Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Ryan Newman and the rest of our guys that went over there. I wish they were all running Indy cars but, that wasn't meant to be, for now. The only reason I even turn on a NASCAR marathon is because of our Sprint/Midget guys that have made the switch. Good luck, Bryan, we'll all be keeping an eye on you!
