You will be able to shoot a cannon in the grandstands and not hit anyone if IndyCar returns making IndyCar look like a complete loser. The France family loves it when IndyCar looks inferior to their NASCAR product |

The Indy 400 should end the IndyCar season at IMS. However, that makes too much sense so IndyCar will never do it. They prefer to embarrass themselves at some track with empty grandstands. Makes a great impression as a season finale. Not. |
