Now that Chris Pook has replaced Joe Heitzler, things are looking up for CART. There is still a huge mess to clean up from this past season, but Pook is the man to do it. Yes, some engine manufacturers are dropping out, but others will step up to the plate. It would certainly be a shame to see it go. There is no other series like CART. It has a good mix of oval, road course and street course on tracks all over the world. It's advanced, but it's also not all about the money, as in F1.
Yes, Penske went to IRL, but that will only open the door for more competition. It will take a couple of years to rebuild, but I have a feeling that they'll pull through.
