Do we really want to compete against the 1999 Damon Hill? 1994 or 1996
perhaps...

Whoever owns this site needs to move it off of the Commodore 64 that
it's running on now, and move up to a 386. I don't know what will
happen first, a page will be rendered or WSC/RL will be released.

Or the Concorde agreement will expire, Bernie will buy CART, and NASCAR will
adopt fuel injection.

Forsythe admits Ecclestone share interest

F1 impresario considering CART options

Forsythe wants Ecclestone to come on board

Champ Car's most powerful team boss, multi-billionaire businessman Jerry
Forsythe, has admitted that Formula 1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone could be
on the verge of buying a majority stake in the US-based single-seater
series, according to this week's AUTOSPORT magazine.

Ecclestone has been linked to making a bid for sanctioning body CART
since the end of 2002, and Forsythe himself a major shareholder in the
company has revealed the story contains substance.

"He [Ecclestone] has been looking at it for quite a few months," Forsythe
told AUTOSPORT. "He's a very intelligent man and understands what the
value of the company is and what the good points are for him in having a
large share in the company."

Forsythe confirmed that he has sent his own personal appraisal of the
series and its governing body to Ecclestone, and said: "If it happened it
would be great for Champ Car. I don't see any downside."

Forsythe added that if a deal was to be struck then it would have to
occur within in the next month.

If you believe that, Senator, then I'm shorting CART stock. (Can't lose -
it's abt. 3 bucks a share...and still falling like a stone.)

Didn't say I necessarily believed it, just passing it along. :-)
