Goodbye Indycar...

mr2tim · 05-03-2009, 02:14 PM

I've been a avid Indycar follower for decades.

I used to be a volunteer (read unpaid) Corner Worker thru SCCA for the Championship Race Series (Champ Cars) for many years.

Unfortunately Indycar Executives have decided they won't let me watch their Indycar series this year unless I pay $60 per year in order to get the new Versus channel here in South Florida.

In this time of belt tightening budgeting these greedy, money hungry executives still think it's OK to gouge the racing public(?), it's just doesn't seem American to me.

So I say "Screw'em", I'll watch The Rolex Sports Car Series and Formula 1 on Speed Channnel and say goodbye to Indycars....

Indycar died when CART and IRL split. IRL sucks ass, and CART lost its fan base.
