gaines should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Bernie

I'm glad I'm not hearing much. I'm hoping that even if Bernie owns a majority of CART that he will keep a low profile and let Pook and the gang handle everything. A marriage with F1 has it's good points and it's bad but since most of our great drivers go into F1 after a few years there's no since in bucking it.

I agree a lot with what I've been reading under the different topics about our drivers going different places. It goes along with what F1manoz said above about our drivers being better than the Invisibles. It seems to me that our great young drivers go on to F1 while our lesser drivers and older drivers on the tail-end of their careers go to the IRL(less world travel, more time at home, no pesky right turns, etc.) I'm excited to see some of the older guys get out of the series. It gives CART the opportunity to give alot of these young warriors in the CART feeder series as well as other series around the globe a chance at some serious seat time. I think these young guys will be faster, more aggressive, funner to watch and in time will make you forget all about Mr. Judd, Michael Angreedy and Phony Kanaan. Plus Memo rumors always make for happy time in the forum.

On one final note, I think it's time we forgive Townsend Bell and move on. He's a kid. He'll mature. If not we'll send him to NASCAR and let him use a bumper.
