err....I'd still remind you that Cart still does have all of the races that are actually watched by more than a few people in trailers in the Southern US....and drivers that people have actually heard of... ...and teams that are actually aware that other countries exist...and that there's a market there too!
IRL has successful races that will draw consistent full crowds where? Indianapolis is usually full...are there others?
Cart on the other hand has full crowds guaranteed every year at...Monterrey Mexico, Long Beach, Motegi Japan, Milwaukee, Laguna Seca, Portland, Toronto, Cleveland, Vancouver, (undoubtably) Montreal, the two races in Europe, and of course the every successful Surfers Paradise. Yes, there are events with less than full grandstands, but most arent...
And are IRL races actually televised? I mean, apart from late at night between infomercials? They're rarely televised live here(Ontario). Cart on the other hand has a new TV deal which might even get qualifying televised next year.
really...apart from Cart's engine troubles (which will undoubtably be sorted out) ...they're really doing a lot better than IRL.
