CART 2001 - DETROIT - ROUND 6

[@randydubin7118]

The last CART/Champ Car race at Belle Isle.

[@de-fault_de-fault]

11:35 the beginning of the end for CART on a second front (the first being when Marlboro couldn’t be on the Penske cars at Indy despite CART “sanctioning” their effort on paper in hopes of satisfying the one-series rule in the tobacco settlement). Toyota would effectively chase Honda out of CART with Valvegate and then left the series anyway, with the feud resuming on the IRL side for a few years. So the tobacco money was about to be gone, and now the engine money, too.

As a born and bred Quebecer, the way Paul Page pronounces Patrick Carpentier (Patreeek Carpenteeyay) really annoys me

LOL. Paul butchered a few names over the years:) Michele Alboreto comes to mind.

​@@asopher2I think he butchered Hiro Matsushita at least 10 different ways 😂
