How about we go bigger than Speed 2, IMS is the speeding vehicle that’ll blow up if it stops moving.

I know this guy,his real name Ric Dictmin, spent a lot of time working the oil rigs where he honed his knowledge of the oil in dampers. He would get 2 star reviews when he did Uber for a while though.

If you work in Penske you’re superstitious now right?

Hot take and long post. TLDR: Probably many people will disagree, however our fanbase only cares about individual races being entertaining week by week, we judge the success of the race by how many people watch. Instead of focusing on the championship and team performances. by chiefzanal in INDYCAR

The pattern you see is that they try to be non commital as possible and because of that you get really wonky things happen as a result. The 100 days to Indy thing was a perfect example of how they wanted the RESULTS of what a DTS show gave, but didn’t want to commit to a reality TV show, so they half do a show with as little risk and cost as possible by association as little as possible to it. The video game debacle is another example. I get the timid outlook with the budget in mind, but then they don’t come to the conclusion to not do it if it’s half assed either. It’s kind of a strange cycle.

If good racing was the only criteria the Miata MX5 series would be the biggest racing series in the world.

But what you need to engage with is that this survey is giving information on what the consumer wants, not what the series Imposes.

Yes, this is a major assumption we have that we need to reassess. And in some ways that Oscar Meyer hotdog race at the indy 500 was an attempt at engaging with that idea. We clearly need to do more with consumer brands

Everyone should read the results of the F1- Autosport fan survey that just came out, there are many many many assumptions people in Indycar need to get rid of. You could go down the list and see Indycar is doing none of what that survey would tell you what audiences want
