S2000 days are finally history, as they used Chevy's trucks to haul the driver's around the track for intro's.

I thought it was great when the winner's wife said the hell the interview and jumped in with the big kiss.... which made him tear up!

I don't know why F1 and Indy doesn't just merge. Then you could have an international event with five or six races in the US.

Firestone replaced Honda as race sponsor.

Congrats to Sebastien for winning after starting last!

Maybe so for St. Pete but we should still be on for Mid-Ohio. Honda sponsors that race.

According to our contact (Pete) Mid-Ohio has asked for our assistance again this year. NASCAR is still an uncertainty.

24 days until Long Beach!
