There is just no end to this reality TV shit is there?

Yeah, just cos reality shows are the "cool" thing atm, doesn't mean cashing in on them and putting Indycar couples in one is suddenly going to make the series attract a new audience.

Try harder, Indycar.

Still, Pocono is great news :)

Thank God it's tentative.

shouldn't Milwaukee be a week after Indy if they want to keep with tradition?

Looks like I'll be heading to Pocono next year... Assuming it's a 500 mile race.

I shall hopefully see you there.

Well fuck. Falls right in the middle of work if July 7th is true. But I will make it to Indy.

The expected Pocono news was the top story on the front page of the newspaper this morning here in Allentown, which is one of the primary markets for the track (and about an hour south). Great news to see it getting some proper attention locally.

It'd be great if they could mix in the ovals more with the road and street circuits instead of blocking them together.

Glad there is no Providence race. We really don't need more street circuits.

That's the official 2013 schedule.

Suck it.

The LRP/Pocono weekend will be fun.
