Personally, I didn't like Paul's antics in Champ Car.

However, I think the IRL needs them lol

It's a real shame Tracy is not in the IRL this year. So what if he said
some bad things about the IRL. What was he suppose to do? He was standing
up for his series. Is that so bad? I'm sure he wanted an end to the split
and return to Indy like every one else.
He should be given a ton of money just for helping keep ChampCar going.

Yep with Champ Car going Tony could always blame lack of interest on the
split.

So what is the latest excuse?

Well, each virus (or is it germ, whatever) replicates how often? It's kind
of like the CART formula for TV viewership.

Carey in Gas City

Tony killed off any interest in US OW racing by splitting the 500 and
making it an amateur event. It was pretty well finished by the late
90s and no amount of female talent will be able to bring it back.
