Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Thursday, March 24, 2005. I always find it bizarre when news stories are able to get away with an unnamed source or I have it on good authority . Name your source! If they are so confident with their statements, come out and show your face! Why am I bringing this up anyway? Hey, they only have 36 races on their schedule, why not easily just add three more (Mexico and two in Canada! Logistically it would be so easy to pull off! Probl...

Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Tuesday, May 03, 2005. Thank you for all the kind words on the new Overheard up at champcar.ws. It really means a lot to me and gives me incentive to continue to do better and better. If my performance is not up to par, then I would expect my employer to tell me face to face. It’s a respect thing. If the employer is unhappy, then tell the employee face to face. Don’t cower behind a note or a letter or even a phone call&#...Jack Rous...

Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Wednesday, April 06, 2005. Well, I guess the IRL figured out that street courses can produce exciting racing and bring in good crowds. Hmmwho’se been doing that since its inception? Oh right, we have! They have figured out that our formula works and now are dead set on re-creating it. Good luck. What’s that sayingoften imitated, never duplicated? Remember what I wrote earlier about Honda? Enjoy the race and remember:. Bruce was the ...

Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Saturday, April 02, 2005. The gloves are off. It wouldn’t have been pretty for our side. To me, these are dirty tactics. By the way, if you’re at a race and you see some bozo walking around with his camera filming odd things, make sure to come and say hello! I have no cameraperson this year, so I’ll always be looking for volunteers at the track. I’ll also drop a season preview shortly. Everybody else is doing it! Champ Car for life!

Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Saturday, April 30, 2005. This works out the rest of the year because nobody really cares. Nobody questions the fact that AGR dominate every race. But in May, people start looking a little closer, notice things they otherwise might not. It isn’t an easy decision for Tony George and Barnhart (or however you spell his name) when it comes to the Indy 500. Who do you give the race too this year? Why continue to fund three foreign driver...

Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Saturday, April 23, 2005. Auto racing and Baseball are my two passions in life, when it comes to professional sports. While I’ll tune into a football game or cheer for my Raptors, nothing drives me (pardon that pun) as much as auto racing and baseball. I sometimes wonder why I’m fascinated by these two sports, and not by, hockey, for example. I mean, what red-blooded Canadian doesn’t live for hockey? Champ Car for life! Hee Should b...

Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Wednesday, May 25, 2005. You want to make progress in the talks? Then tell us what the REAL stumbling block is: Tony wants complete control! Both the series want to be popular; both the series want as much revenue as possible. Both want to compete with NASCAR for viewers and fans. That’s the bottom line. Both share the same philosophy when it comes to the business side of things. There is no PHILOSOPHICAL difference! Well, I did it ...

Overheard at the Track. All things Champ Car! And other forms of racing! Friday, April 15, 2005. As you obviously know by now, he won the season opener. Before Long Beach, he had a 15-race streak where he qualified in the top 3. He just won the IROC race in Texas on Friday night, beating guys who do nothing but ovals on a full time basis. He’s run about a handful in his career. Does it help running with Newman/Haas? There isn’t much they can do anyway, given that our series puts the emphasis on the drive...
