Once NASCAR got over 200 Indy lost it's glamor. Then the IRL/ CART war started splitting the audience. Finally came a series of 500s delayed by rain and the whole thing got postponed right out of America's hive mind. Now an Andretti is racing NASCAR and that says it all.

I never used to miss it. But with the Cart/IRL debacle, with AJ rambling on about non-Americans winning the race and the fact that it was getting too expensive to run cars there, they have taken the race out of the race. AJ destroyed the whole thing. I actually forgot it was on today. My only passing interest anymore is hoping for Michael to finally win one. I guess it was not to be yet again.
AJ Foyt personally destroyed the thing. Now the IRL is simply boring with all the restrictions they have, and CART won't race on a track where you can pass.
