Let's go back to RICHMOND


FTFY... ;)



I wouldn't assume either of those tracks to be safer, especially considering HCN flattened the front stretch debris fence at Richmond one time during testing.

As so many of you have already stated, it's going to be ashame to lose a historical track to foolish driving.

The irony of that T2 sign "please drive safely"

I mean, we're all emotional right now so I don't blame people for their reactions, but let's not pretend pocono's fate wasn't sealed long before this crash when the crowds didn't return to such a level that this race could make money for indycar.

We'll debate safety but it's not making anyone any money,
If it was they'd still run it even if this became the norm like the dega big one

Hinch and Rossi have to sit for ten laps once their cars are fixed before they can rejoin.

With power being the first to pit due to engine overheating they might as well just hand the race and title to Dixon already

Why do they practice for 2 weeks at indy and race with almost no practice here? The drivers just don't have time to get used to the track and cars
