Alex Tagliani will be running NASCAR Canadian Tire series, so you can count him out for any open rides right now.

LordPants posted:How can you hate a series that runs Mosport, Trois-Rivières and then a series of .250 and .333 ovals. Its a blatent cash-grab up here, even moreso than down south. Rule changes that added nothing to the product, just to get nascar-backed suppliers involved, playing politics with race dates, ignoring Canadian holiday weekends for scheduling up until last season, the fact that they wont reach out to other manufacturers for support - I can go on. If it wasn't for their excellent TV deal and the truck race at mosport, the series would be dead.

I'm watching the 1995 500 again this afternoon instead of Nationwide. Looking at what we had and what we've got now, Tony George can go suck cocks for eternity. E: It's like taking a thriving city, forcing people out for 15 years and then trying to gather everyone back together to fill the city again.

Let me get this straight - Instead of penalizing Villeneuve with a stop-and-go penalty to hold him 2 laps, they just took 2 laps away from him and let him keep track position?

I tried watching this race, but Jason Priestly's commentary was the straw that broke the camel's back. E: I wonder how many drivers have won both in the IRL and CART? Boomer The Cannon fucked around with this message at 03:40 on Jun 6, 2014 |

FuzzySkinner posted:The majority of the folks I've met who go to MIS aren't what I would call "Hardcore" fans. I seem to recall it's just a couple of middle aged people that go out to drink and camp out. If MIS would get an open-wheel race, you'd want to cater to that same demographic and the folks that went to Toronto during the CART days, to get the best of both worlds.

I think you'd be surprised at the number of Canadian fans who migrate to Michigan, Watkins Glen, Pocono and New Hampshire over the course of the season, but especially Michigan, with the border being 40 minutes away. Heck, there had to be 15-20 Canadian license plates in our parking section at Talladega a couple of years ago.

There's only one problem - there's really nobody coming up after Hinch who would fill the need. The time to strike was 10 years ago, where there were a bunch of Canadians in IRL/CART and Atlantics/Mazda/F3, before they all hosed off to sportscars and stockcars.

VikingSkull posted:NASCAR hasn't ignored Canada, it runs a touring series there and also has NASCAR home tracks IIRC. It's a blatant cash grab without any fucks given towards long-term sustainability, and without any sense of how the Canadian racing scene actually functioned when they went in.

FuzzySkinner posted:To field a car at the Indy 500 it costs 1 Million dollars. If you make the field? You get about 1/4th of that back, so roughly around 750,000. Until then, Tony is like Schroedinger's Cat - he might get Indy or not get indy at the same time.
