Not much to say about this, other than a merger can only be positive. Will it happen, who knows, but it is better to know what is happening, than not.

Autoweek is fairly cautious in validating such rumors, but their points regarding the current relationship between principals seems to lend credence to the validity of a rapproachment. One need only look at the present state of the Indy 500 for justification. A very thorny issue mentioned in the article was a suggestion that both series may choose to combine their 'strongest events', which, as others mention, could prove quite an obstacle. As always though, it would be great if it came about - '07 might be too soon to put the pieces together.
