Default Sarah Fisher - 05-14-2007 , 02:37 AM






What's the story with her always at the back of the pack? Okay, road
courses were new to her and she's been away for a while...is it her or is
it the car?

For cars that are supposed to be equal, there's not a lot of equality.

Driven is on TNT right now...jeez what a horrible movie.

It's the car. She's in a backmarker team.

Indeed. New aero regs were supposed to help with that, and in a sense
they did somewhat. They allowed AGR to come out of the mid-pack and run
up front a few times.

I've never been able to sit through the whole thing. I've watched a few
bits and laughed at it, but that rarely lasts longer than 5 minutes.

A movie that truly captures the spirit of the series, then.

Was that movie about Champ Car/CART or F1? I never paid enough attention
to find out.

The IRL is going to have pole night qualifying next year so you'll be able
to see the glow of all the "Spirits" in the stands.

As I stated, an accurate portrayal.

When you start to scrape the bottom of the barrel for talent and pretty
much let anyone drive, the times will be all over the place.

If Al Jr. drives, then the spirits will be flowing inside the car as well.

An accurate portrayal of how bad open wheel has become ever since the
formation of the IRL.
