RE: CART Racing in North America....(was "open wheel rant"...by

It would be phenomenally hard to get CART or IRL to succeed--they have
comprehensively shot themselves and each other in the foot and head.
Beyond that, NASCAR has real wizards running the show, and the racing is
down-market--they bump each other and do all the stuff you need to do to
appeal to middle 'murrica. There aren't that many real motorheads to begin
with and IRL/Cart racing is almost as boring as Formula 1 (without the
benefit of cool hardware). They've already thrown away their audience.
