"We have to go international,'' Sabates said. "If we don't go
international we're going to die. I shouldn't say die, but we're not going
to grow. I beg to say that it may not be in my lifetime, but in a lot of
young people like [driver] Reed Sorenson's lifetime, we'll be running in
Europe.''

Yeah, I saw that, too. I still feel that they run the risk of taking Cup

and altering it to please an international audience. There seems to be some
falling out now of fan support in that Cup has changed to please an audience
outside the southeastern US, but in my view, that has been overdue. NASCAR
would be better served to start regional European racing, maybe with one
Cup/NASCAR Europe event combined event (Like they used to do with Cup and
Winston West for the west coast races). But remember, Felix is a
businessman first, and a racer second. The success of his teams bears that
out.

Death to the IRL mid-year. CC seems to be close to emerging. When the

the split will end.

let me know when the lsd wears off

There never was any for me. Let me know when you resume contact with
reality.

Got it. You are naturally crazy. It takes years for these things to
die, not mid season.
