As did I when I was in high school/college. Favorite crapwagon memory was a thread that started as a tribute to Greg Moore and ended as a slapfight as to whether he would've driven in the IRL since he'd signed with Penske.

I'm well aware of the bitter CCWS fans but I was surprised that there are people that were diehard fans of the early IRL.

Crapwagoners were amazing because they thought the 2007 champ car season was good.

Also, re: Nashville: https://www.motorsport.com/indycar/news/miles-encouraged-by-nashville-interest-in-indycar-for-2019-920884/ Potential layout. Looks... plain? Dunno, will have to see how they plan on implementing it.

I read the thing they put up and loving lol at them saying non of the tracks are suitable for racing. I've seen San Jose guys. And also they still think Tony George is still in control of everything.

I think Your Favorite Driver Sucks was a quasi-CrapWagon offsite too, though you could only get an account by asking them in person at the Road America race IIRC.
