Actually, this was a big topic on the local (Indy) talk shows --
including the stick and ball shows that cater to an audience that
doesn't know that racing exists where right turns happen on purpose.
Most of the s & b folks think the cars should be weighed with the
drivers -- now. Funny, nobody thought about that with Janet Guthrie,
Lynn St. Famous or Sarah Fisher (two time IRL Most Popular Driver --
now running a regional NASCAR feeder series).
