It's not just serious backers with deep pockets that make a series work. You have to have a competative long term business plan and implement it. That appears to be where Champ Car has the edge. One big race doesn't make a series especially over the long haul. IMO if the big teams come back to Champ Car it would be devastating to the IRL. As a sidebar it could also put both of the competative women (think marketing) on the same side of the fence.
