So is it up to CC to fix all of open wheel racing's problems ? You agree that CC should not give up just to let "Tony have it". So why say is it best for CC to pack up shop say opposed to IRL? Both clearly are struggling in the American sporting landscape. I understand this is CC forum to discuss CC only but I feel that mention of the IRL and its position is highly relevant to this discussion.

The car is pretty reliable these days. The last sentence is something not confined to CC
