I was on the side of the IRL. When it was announced the idea of dirt car drivers coming up and racing Indy cars on ovals made sense to me. I love the nostalgia of reading about the 40-60's and drivers coming up that way to race in the 500. Now it is CART 2.0, history is repeating itself again, except Penske knows he has to stick with the powers to be at IMS.MonteCristo wrote:G'day!

I'm going to make an effort to watch IndyCar this year. It's a shame last year's championship turned out the way it did Montoya's drive in Sonoma was quite epic, I haven't seen someone push that hard in a race for some time.

Welcome Indianapolis is a fun place, both the circuit and downtown. I wish I could spend more time there.
What happened with Monty at Sonoma last year? I remember a pretty boring race which Pagenaud dominated.PTRACER wrote:I'm going to make an effort to watch IndyCar this year.

Was it last year when he lost by 1 point? Something about a silly rule. I remember him driving like a maniac trying to catch the guy in front in the last dozen laps.
