Just locked down the hotel for Phoenix. Waiting on ticket sales to open up. I need to also do something for freaking Long Beach, I really do.

Yeah the key for Long Beach is to not stay in Long Beach. If you can handle a 10-20 minute drive on the highway, hotel prices get much more reasonable. :D

In addition, it is expected that there will be two or three Mexican drivers in the competition; Esteban Gutiérrez , ex F1 , works to have a seat full time in the series 'openwheel' North American.

Good to see The Gut trying to stick with the series.

This is a rather interesting bit on who would be up being series champ each year, if you could only win it once.

Too bad the other drivers out of the running can't pool their sponsorships together and do a weird cobbled team.
