It's funny we've been discussing this in the R.A.S. group, then this Jon Vannini guy decides to take a stand. Maybe he's been reading our posts! :) In article <RejC7.3189$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] says...

Sounds good on the surface, except when he says he wants to increase sanctioning fees. CART's fees are already much higher than IRL's, that's why MIS will not have a CART race next year. Change the management - yes, but make racing even more expensive (for the fans) and exclusive - no.

Yes, you hit it on the head. That was the thing that stood out the most to me, too. Increase sanctioning fees up to F1 standards? Talk about the death of CART... "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:2ckC7.35164$[email hidden]...

Yes, excellent... but the pessimist in me says "I'll believe it when I see it." (Especially the WRC... that is SOOOO awesome to watch.) "rik zeppelin" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:njlC7.3362$[email hidden]...
