The squabbling between these series has led to the deterioration and what will possibly be the ultimate demise of open wheel racing in America. All that matters today is NASCAR. Champcar has been dead for the last few years... its a second rate spec series with second rate teams and drivers... if you don't believe me, cast your mind back 10 or 12 years and compare it what was one of the premier racing series in the world. The IRL is not in great shape either and even if ChampCar dies, its future is far from clear.
Put yourself in the position of a sponsor... an IRL team, a champcar team and a NASCAR team come to you looking for $1M in backing, where are you going to put your greenbacks !
