    Sorry it takes more than buying some other series old records to make you part of it. Really if CART was so horrible and flawed that this seris needed to be formed int he forst place why would they possibly want to lay claim to its history.

    The split is over folks. IRL and CART are dead.

    That's not why the IRL was formed in the first place.

    Perhaps out of a desire to bolster credibility while, at the same time, appeasing some fans.

    Exactly...... world series was never in the Indy Racing League Indy Car Series................

    You must be referring to the other series that was so successful it went belly up.

    Why would you want to take things from a belly up series and think they will make things better.....????????

    Do you mean "in the forum dedicated to them" or what you posted?

    Same thing, isn't it? THIS forum (sub-forum, category, whatever) is the place for them, not the IndyCar forum, or the Racing Biz forum, or Hurley's World, etc.

    These posts were moved from a thread in the rev-ed's IndyCar forum.

    A better effort toward literal cleanliness, for sure.

    If you would've kept the simple fact of merging records apart from also merging with an organization that went backrupt almost 10 years ago in your previous post, it would've been accurate, too - that's all.
