Flatspot should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I can buy into this.

* Keeping the name Champ Car is the smartest move to come out of CART in a while.

* Keeping the turbos, at least through '04, was already the plan but I like it and hopefully it will stick beyond.

* Running with Trans-Am...great! I hope that they or ALMS follow CART to the road courses too. When CART used to team up with the IMSA GT Series it was always a full weekend of great racing. Trans-Am and/or ALMS could do the same.

* Moving Laguna Seca back to Fall. I sure hope so. Then I won't miss it again.

* Adding some concerts to give it an event atmosphere. I think this has merit.

* Bringing back Franchitti... Does he promise to bring his wife along?

* People truly passionate about thier racing at the helm. You can't ask for more.

* Telling Tony George to take his ball and stuff it. It's a no-brainer and about time.

In fact this is about the best news I've heard on the direction CART could go in a couple of years.

LONG LIVE CART !!!
