Welcome to the Desert of IndyCar Nothingness — where time stands still, and Homestead lingers over the horizon like an unreachable, magical oasis that doesn’t actually exist. Embrace the senility & wander with me, won’t you? It’s great fun.

Is it a clichéd & half-assed attempt to generate material? Well of course it is. But it’s better less dumb than sawing off your own foot with a cactus. If only barely.

You should never I say never wear black socks with white berry huggers.

Roy’s looking pretty good in his whitey tighties. I say that in the most non-gay way possible.

About the only thing I can equate the time between these races is the quadrennial wait for curling to commence. And to be clear my love of curling is roughly equivalent to America’s indifference towards open wheel racing. The show Wipeout has been seared more effectively into the American sporting consciousness than this sport I follow…for some reason.

Actually… that was pretty gay.
I think you got it backwards as well, dog; it’s “tighty whities.” Although, I gotta admit, that guy’s really white. Pink even.

Every weekend without a proper Indycar race, I pretend there’s an Alternative Indycar race made up of people who didn’t have full time rides this year. Last Weekend I pretended Buddy Rice pipped AJ Foyt IV to narrow victory but it didn’t mean anything to the imaginary title race which is going down to the wire this weekend with championship leader Paul Tracy, Bruno Junquira and long shot Townsend Bell. I’m imagining a large field for the last week, Vitor Meira is ready to race on loan from Foyt and Oriol Servia is once again available. Can’t wait to pretend who’s gonna win.

That’s not Hobson, that’s Tim Richmond wandering around the Phoenix oval grounds looking for transvestites!

I thought the IRL folded since I haven’t seen or heard anything on TV about it. Oh wait…that’s the way it’s always been, carry on.

This picture looks like a guy in search of a series sponsor? …or maybe he’s looking for all of that open wheel talent that went NASCAR racing?
C’mon man, IndyCar racing is the best racing on earth !!
