2015 IndyCar schedule

A return to Brazil is good.

Other than that, it's mostly is the same as we've come to expect in recent years: Which I suppose is as good as we can hope for.

I'm not allowed to start threads, so I figured this was a safe one to sort of hijack.

after reading this. I wonder how can an Indy Car ever mishandle? Seems to me they would have to start off way off base for a driver not to correct the handling from his cockpit. My understanding is an F-1 steering wheel is even more complex.

found the read interesting though.

Indy, I can think of two venues they could add and they would do well. Road America and the new track in Texas that F-1 visits. Another would be the the track in Portland. We shall see just how well the sport grows and maybe these tracks will get included.

I always liked the Portland track: That would be at the top of my list as well. Road America is also good. Can't see COTA, as it might diminish the TMS crowd size, and Eddie Gossage would fight that.

Yea, I know the IRL doesn't like Texas Motor Speedway in Dallas because of the severe g-forces it generates at the speeds of the IndyCars but I would think that Goassage would welcome revenue wherever he can get it from. Apparently he makes enough from F-1 and the Rolex Sports Car series I believe that now runs at COTA.

Retroram:

Gossage runs TMS, not COTA.

Yep I know Indy and you are right. I am trying to figure how I screwed that one up. Thanks for the clarification.
