    FBMW???? hahaha, those guys are lucky to make it to FM or Atlantics.

    as much as I hate to say it, my money is on someone from Nascar. not too many american roadracing talents anymore, especially open wheel. this will be all about marketing for the first few years and thats the only thing Nascar is good for, besides finding unique ways to cheat. we will see, I pray that I am wrong.

    thats one out of how many people? besides, as everyone can tell, he has a natural talent for racing and he wouldve gotten through to F1 if he raced barstools and lawnmowers.
    dont get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with FBMW, i worked in FBMW for two years. But look at the driver lineup in North America FBMW the past few years. most were not americans, especially the ones who won. it just doesnt have the level of competition that you would see in europe. open wheel racing that doesnt include roundy round for most of the season just isnt popular here. the end goal is always money, there is no money for it here. where is the money? nascar, thats why you will more than likely see a large nascar influence. like i said before, hope im wrong. no one dislikes nascar more than me.

    i dont have much to say on the red bull rookie search. i find it hard to believe that after testing all those people, the best they could come up with as far as talent goes was scott speed.

    Mazda has tried to use the ladder program, but Champ Car died off and now there is no more top rung. Thank you Tony George.

    i wish they would test the cars at RA so I could watch too, too bad it would never happen.
