CART had hugely popular events, four major motor manufacturers backing it, professional teams and big sponsors, and look at where it was in 2003.
Having Ford back involved is great, but it hardly secures the future of the series in any way, shape or form.

CART had its problems back then but they were internal and they paid the price, that's for sure. Global Rallycross has had problems behind the public face for some time so not really a surprise either.
Having Ford back in doesn't secure the future of the series, I agree with you there but it does strengthen the series and if the series is properly managed the return of Ford could well be something of a watershed moment.
