The CART cars are so much faster and more technical than the IRL cars, that I can't help but feel the CART teams find their transition to Indy (dare I say it) quite easy.
This was my first time watching the Indy500. I've been following CART in depth since '96. Indy's usually on at terrible hours in Australia and features drivers I have never heard much about (IRL isn't televised in Australia). I decided I would stay up and watch it this year and barrack for the CART guys. I found the actual race reasonably interesting. However, I can't help but feel it would have been a whole heap more exciting with Zanardi, Tracy, Brack, DaMatta, Kanaan and the rest of the CART guys dicing on that awesome track.
