Should have some good racing this year for sure in one of the races, the TUSCC race was one of their best of the entire season last year. Also Pirelli World Challenge will have live television coverage on Sunday on CBS Sports Network.

Vautier and Rodolfo Gonzalez will be driving for Dale Coyne.

Dracone is definitely gone then.

I think, and Tommy can verify this, NBC has the rest of the season after this weekend. NBC likes to focus on the Stanley Cup Playoffs and the triple crown during the early portion of the Indycar schedule.

At least it doesn't have a massive picture of her face somewhere prominent, unlike poor Larson's scheme.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

They also sponsored Dan Wheldon in the Vegas race (a couple others i think too). Him mentioning it was actually some of his final words just before the race started. :/

No I think I'll dislike her. She's a hypocrite, or at least comes across as major one. Flaunts this wholesome image that is supposedly to show she's a role model, yet goes around hooking up with guys and uses said relationships as material for songs and albums. Not quite so wholesome or what I'd want my daughter to see as a role model.

I like her, at least the looks, even if I ain't her (crazy logic this one). But that car is awful, ugly, disgusting and nauseating.
