That article just says that Indycar is freezing aerokit development in hopes that it could possibly attract new engine manufacturers who are too lazy/cheap to do aerokits.

Speaking of USAC how come they've come back to running pavement? F1600/2000/Atlantics all list USAC instead of SCCA on their website.

wicka posted:It's insanely, unbelievably stupid because it effectively limits your audience to the people who are already watching. You're undermining your ability to attract new fans because so few people are going to spend money to attend an event they've never seen before. Several sports have done studies related to TV blackouts and shown that attendance increases when a blackout is lifted (CITATION NEEDED), because you're actually advertising your sport. SWIndiana is definitely the dumpster but thanks for defending our honor?

Road Atlanta is owned by IMSA and is a sports car track. It's never hosted Indycar (or CART or USAC or F1)

Lord Crapulus posted:Road Atlanta is supposedly not suitable for open wheel, although I'm not sure why they decide that something like that doesn't have enough runoff or whatever, but something like Long Beach or Belle Isle is okay. I suppose the cars would be going much faster at Road Atlanta. The last straight into the hard left/hard right has claimed many a car in racing games. I imagine that's the main worry.

FuzzySkinner posted:MP confirmed that Lambo was interested in joining IndyCar, but turned it down. Lamborghini is loving trash in car racing so they were probably worried their sports car engine would be routinely beat by what is ostensibly a Civic. If they do go the (hahaha) LMP1 route they're gonna get stuffed so fast it'll make their head spin. Also Indycar opening up the formula is a horrific idea and would lead skyrocketing prices in a series where most cars run without sponsors.
