WOW! " IndyCar Won't Return To Edmonton". How many towns have said this during the years. After the dirt cars were dropped from the Real National Championship. And real champions from oval, dirt and road racing determined by points from all 3. I don't remember any paying drivers for those years. Only after they dropped the dirt races from points were drivers paying for a rides. Would it be fun to go back to the real deal for a Champion? Don't forget the stands were full for all of them. The crowds wanted to watch the American drivers real bad and the rules then supported that. Yep the car owners changed racing after the road racing owners got the dirt part throwed out of the points. Any one remember doing a Indy points race at Springfield and the next day on a points race at Milwakee. That was Indy car racing at it's best. Only American drivers did both races and the crowds wanted that real bad. And fill the stands with back to back Indy car races. Awesome!
