Well, its needed to happen for some time but last Friday, ChampCar and the IRL agreed to merge and go with the IRL format. This is good for American open wheel racing as the split hurt it a long time ago, and the development of good American open wheel racers. I never agreed with the concept of only running ovals as IRL wanted to do originally, but hopefully this will allow the IRL series to flourish and be profitable. I think that ChampCar was on its last leg financially and had to come to the table or go under, but that is just my opinion..
Should make for better racing though, and more competitive teams.
