The Beauty of Domination
— irlorama.blogspot.com — If any driver from Penske or Ganassi leads 49 of 60 laps, it's another week of bashing... the league's non-competitive nature. But Justin Wilson drives away with the victory, and I'm okay with the domination. Congratulations to my "brother-in-height" Justin Wilson, Dale Coyne, and to everyone who ...

Let's Talk About Racing
— irlorama.blogspot.com — Tony George dominated the IRL-news world this week. Thank God there is a race this weekend so... we can get back to complaining about the good stuff, lack of passing.

Tony George Out
— irlorama.blogspot.com — As Puff Daddy once said, it's all about the Benjamins. That's why Tony George is out as... CEO. He'll still be around serving on the board but the move sends a message, the IRL is now about money. Where's will this be most evident? I'm expecting in the schedule. This league will go where the ... (more) Tony George Out

Acceleration to Retirement
— irlorama.blogspot.com — When Tony Kanaan signed a 5-year deal with AGR, he made it clear that retirement before the... end of the contract was a possibility. With all that's happened to the man this year, retirement may come sooner than later. Three races into the season, TK was first in points. Two races later, he's ... (more) Acceleration to Retirement

Signs Point to Ganassi
— irlorama.blogspot.com — There's too many signs for it to be coincidence. This isn't just shaking the magic 8 ball.... I'm convinced Danica will be at Ganassi next season. There's new signs every race. No open-wheel driver is dumb enough to go to NA**** after the colossal failure of Sam Hornish, Jr. A man with 19 career ... (more) Signs Point to Ganassi

Pom-Poms and Little Clothing
— irlorama.blogspot.com — (This was supposed to be posted yesterday. Not sure why it didn't. Stupid computers.) Time to put... on my cheerleader uniform and get some positive support going for this season. I've been critical of the racing action especially on the ovals.

Bring on the Road Racing
— irlorama.blogspot.com — If I had a nickel for every time I've heard "the American public wants oval racing." With... the explosion of NA**** and the IRL out dueling Champ Car, it makes perfect sense. But looking deeper, is it really true? Stock car racing's popularity isn't enough to prove that Americans only want ovals.  ... (more) Bring on the Road Racing

Myth of NA****'s Popularity
— irlorama.blogspot.com — This decade of American racing has, sadly, been dominated by NA****. Open-wheel racing has been placed on... the back burner while Americans ate all they could handle from the stock car pot.
