[opinionated ow]

are they talking about tony stewart being too fat and have all nascar drivers refused? I'd love to see Kyle Busch give it a shot...

Is it too late to call George Mack?

Stupid singing shows give away millions and half the world watches with baited breath. indy car gives away millions and no one cares. And they say this thing isn't dead.:\

Whats funny is if Wheldon wins, between that and Indy he likely will bring home more money than I bet most of the field did for the season aside from Danicrap, for running and winning only 2 races!

[SteveH]

Wheldon's take at Indy was $2,567,255. If he wins Vegas, it will be slightly less.

Way to devalue the product. Do they ever think this stuff through? :rolleyes:

You are all signing up and you know it. :laugh:

IndyCar: Dan Wheldon to race for $5 million bonus in Las Vegas season finale

I SWEAR I thought it said "bogus in Las Vegas."

Only because it is. Welldone gets to race, the NoPlace500 winner and others don't because they've raced too much this year? :rolleyes:

$$ not won in Vegas stays in Vegas....

I didn't miss that tidbit about Randy returning from the GP at Monza just in time to make this HUGE announcement. Am I to infer he came back empty-handed (but with full pockets) or is he just a big Jenson Button fan?:confused:

[SteveH]

Supposedly Randy asked Ferrari to allow Michael to race at Vegas.

It's true, I read it on the internet. ;)

[cameraman]

The Michael rumors were false but he and Connor Daly did chat up Avril Lavigne on the flight back. (she's hot):saywhat:

[NismoZ]

Who does she drive for?:gomer:

[NismoZ]

Michael?...Ferrari?...What year is this, anyway? I have NOT been paying attention!
