New superspeedway tuning options for PoconoThe Verizon IndyCar Series will give its teams new aerodynamic tuning options for the next superspeedway race. The series’ visit to the 2.5-mile Pocono oval in August, which will make use of the same speedway aero configuration seen at Indianapolis and Texas, will coincide with the introduction of two optional front wing pieces. The primary piece, which bolts to the trailing edge of the front wing from the center inwards, is an extension that creates a wider chord and gives a slight increase in downforce. racer.com/2018/06/18/new-superspeedway-tuning-options-for-pocono/

Money talks, as does Bruce McLaren being a Kiwi don't under estimate either of those factors.

I saw that coming. Now I get to hear all the geniuses on other message boards complain and struggle to figure out why. They gave it a shot and couldn’t figure out a way to put on a good race. The series drove away what few fans were left in Arizona. I would try a race in Mexico perhaps to fill the spot.

Another historic track, and a link to the sport's past is gone.
AJ Foyt won the first IndyCar race here in 1964. 63 races later Josef Newgarden won the last.
Guess it's time to add another street race.

Guess it's time to add another street race. The series only goes to 4 street circuits and has a total of 5 races. I’m not advocating for more but that’s not really a lot.

I understand, there's a lot of things that led up to this. I just sucks though, the IndyCar that I grew up with is almost gone. It's pretty sad to go to a local sprint car race that pays maybe 3,000 to win and there are more fans there than there are in Phoenix and Milwaukee. Those were Staples of the sport, along with Michigan, Ontario, Pocono...

Wasn't there a story a couple months ago that Cleveland might be in play?
