We're really happy to be partners with the IndyCar Garage.  As we all know, motorsports is ultimately driven by the fans! Without us fans, there is no sport!

Actually...that's not entirely accurate.  Jim Clark once said his ultimate sporting dream fantasy was to race on deserted tracks that didn't have any grandstands at all, with eight to ten of his best friends and fellow competitors.  Fans are extremely important...but this sport is ultimately about "taking the wheel of a high-powered vehicle, pushing its performance past its design, then compete against like-minded individuals, while recognizing yet all but ignoring the dangers."

It's only glamorous with fans involved, maybe.  A sport?  It's that so long as they can keep affording it.

Oh, and pleasure to meet you.  A welcome to all Open Paddock members, to the best, and hopefully continually freest, IndyCar discussion site in existence.
