His family is in the oil industry, so yeah.

Reports that IndyCar could host an exhibition race on the streets of Adelaide are without foundation, Speedcafe can confirm.

The American open-wheel series has been looking at the potential of adding an ‘international’ event, with a race in South America tipped as the most likely location.

Rumours regarding a possible IndyCar return to Adelaide were raised in an article published in the Indianapolis Star, picked up by other outlets without interrogation.

The rumour has continued to swirl ever since despite there being no official comment on the matter.

And that is because, according to multiple sources spoken to by Speedcafe, it is simply not true.

Needs to be a street circuit imo. Aussie's permanent tracks are fairly average, but they sure do know how to do street tracks (yes, I include Bathurst in that)

Just bite the bullet and send them to Bathurst, what’s the worst that can happen, F5000 have raced there without issues.

I reckon Indycar at Phillip Island would go alright. But yes I agree permanent tracks are average, hope the new one in Victoria is better than Tailem Bend.

well there's always the Thunderdome

we don't need another heeeeero

Surely the best locale for an Australian Indycar event would be the proposed circuit in Toowoomba?

In a move revealed on Thursday, Honda Performance Development, the motorsport arm of American Honda Motor Co., based out of Santa Clarita in California, will join Japan’s Honda Racing Corporation to become HRC US.
