sorry, misunderstanding....
still though, lets be honest, OW racing in north america was going to need a shot in the arm no matter what. and the IRL and the way that it was and is doing business is not doing it any good. CART in my personal opinion is doing a much better job now than the IRL at any given point in time. hell, TG has even managed to kill the indy this year....
both sides need so smarten the fuck up and sit down and talk merger because the state of affairs is rediclous. and, mark my words, in two to three years, if that dosent happen, one of two things will happen. both series will be hurting big time, or, CART under current management, will change engine and chassie regs to be more inline with the IRL, Honda and toyota get fed up with the lack of people watching on tv and in the stands at irl races and move to CART again and CART flurishes (sp) yet again...
yeah...
...think about it...
