The more he speaks the more I like what he is saying. Randy Bernard did a lot of things right (including a new car and getting Chevy back) but he got it wrong with the ICONIC committee and also, it appears a contract with Dallara that goes until 2018, at least. By then will it be too late? I know mountainstar thinks it already is.

It's about time IndyCar hired him. He may have saved Randy Bernard's job if it had happened sooner.

The car is great, I don't see any complaints. The biggest issue is ratings and attendance, which is caused by lack of promotion and coverage.

"Lack of Promotion and coverage" doesn't equate to known Fish Molester Larry Dahlberg's tape delayed show with no advertising "Hunt for Big Fish" beating it on the same network. And the marketing is no worse than it was in 2008 (Gene Simmons I am Mindy presented by Dr Pepper) yet less and less people are watching it.Down and Down we go.

I'd wonder how much an impact Walker will really make. He's an old geezer now and years ago was working on heading into retirement, so I'm not sure he is going to hang around for too long.

He's not important for the decisions he does, but for how he changes everyone around him. If IndyCar executives start to understand things by hearing him, that's good enough.

I reckon he will be here for a little while, he wouldnt have signed a contract otherwise
