Pretty soon they'll have to merge with the IRL surviving. Bye bye champ car, no really I'm not thrilled that they may go under but being from Indy I love Indycar more, lots more, lol.
navygirl Parkville, MD	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #6 Dec 30, 2007 Who cares about Champ? The IRL will survive that's all that matters. With 300,000 fans at Indianapolis everyyear it's obvious it will survive. Yeah Mystery man you tell that ugly racecar driver the truth LOL i have no idea what you guys are talking about

Dan C West Sacramento, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #13 Dec 31, 2007 The owners have to put their egos aside for the betterment of open wheel racing. and they also have to hire and promote American Drivers if they want Americans to spend money to watch a race in america. Simple if I wanted to watch foeigners i would watch a soccer match
Lets go racing Since: Aug 07 11,876 AOL	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #14 Dec 31, 2007 Well obviously this is the JPM thread so I can't agree with you I like the man. They hire where they see talent, foreigners are in every sport like it or not. Maybe bowling doesn't have as many good luck with that.
