I have the bad feeling that somehow the power will go to the owners (A.K.A. GanASSi or Penske) and we'll have another street circuit filled season.

We already have that!!! It's a series dominated by road/street circuits and a revolving door of obscure minor league "furrin" roadracers.......oh, and a couple of American road racers strewn about for good measure.

Sorry to see anyone lose their job. Randy is a talented individual and I am sure he will find an opportunity to fit that talent. With the "girls" running the show, who in their right mind would even want this job?

Another twist in the saga of IndyCar. It is like a soap opera.

It is my wish that IndyCar now gets back to their roots-Oval track racing-and quits trying to be something they're not. They now have that chance. Start small, get back to grassroots racing, put on good shows and the fans and sponsors will follow.

Great thought, will never happen. Days of all oval Indy racing is long gone.

Between the "girls" and Kevin M. the future on west 16th street is sad.
